Title: Statistical Consultant for Hire (MSc graduate)
Post by: factotumjack on October 17, 2011, 01:32:14 AM
I'm a recent MSc Statistics grad, and I'm trying to get some experience and exposure in statistical consulting. (eg. Data cleaning, data analysis, text processing).  To reach a new market, I'm considering working not only for $CDN and $USD, but also Bitcoins at a discount to attract clients other statisticians might not reach.

We can discuss price in IM or e-mail, but for some time I'm intending to charge near half the recommended consulting price and a further discount for payment in bitcoins.

My CV as of Oct. 2011 is up at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/44754267/Michael_Davis_CV_Oct2011.pdf if you're interested in seeing it.


Edit: Rewrote pitch, updated CV.

Bump for new pitch and CV update.

It doesn't show on my CV because it's not published, but I've also done some work with text processing. Specifically whittling down box scores of professional hockey and cricket games into a clean database of each goal or each play.

noticed your post - you're in Canada - I'll download your doc, but don't expect anything, it's more for interest.
Edit - read - interesting
