What People Are Saying

 

“We faced a significant challenge in estimating the market potential for our solar home system solution. In a subject matter area that he was unfamiliar with, Joshua was able to quickly understand our needs, identify the necessary data, obtain the dataset, clean and analyze the data, and report the findings in an understandable form. I am quite impressed with Josh’s data mining and analysis skills”

“Joshua stepped in to supervise my Honors Thesis when my advisor took maternity leave. He helped me to formulate my problem, taught me the discrete choice methods I needed to use, and provided invaluable feedback throughout the process. Without his assistance I couldn’t have finished my Honors Thesis. He also provided help and encouragement as I worked through my Masters Degree in Economics at the University of Oregon.”

“Joshua’s work on identity formation and malleability has a great deal of relevancy to understanding the challenges being experienced in democracy today as well as given me a different approach to understanding consumer preferences. He is an extremely creative thinker with both brilliant intuition and excellent quantitative skills.
