Intro time! I'm David. I call myself a "data generalist" because I haven't found a label that fits. I've been a software dev, data scientist, and my real passion is education so now I do Python and data training. I'm currently most interested in skills that data people *actually* need to know.

'data generalist' I like it! Felt very similar to you where I had a hard time summarizing me between SWE—MLE—DS—teacher Cool to see your passion in education! I've been doing this mostly on the side these days— I'd love to talk about edu approach sometime w/ you :D And exciting about your book!

Yes! Exactly this! I'd always have to append 'hi, me data scientist' with what I'm actually doing. It's just too big of an umbrella for such a diverse field & set of people 'Data Generalist' is ironically probably the most accurate & specific title for folks like yourself
