Hi! My name is Aimee Schwab-McCoy and I’m a professional educator and writer in data science and statistics. After seven years in academia, I am now a Data Science Content Developer (not the YouTube kind…). I create and support interactive learning resources at zyBooks, an online textbook company, for data science, machine learning, and statistics. We’ve got some awesome new releases coming soon that I can’t wait to share with everyone!

I am also a certified RStudio Instructor, and an active researcher in statistics and data science education and curriculum development.

My research interests include:

• Statistics education, especially including teaching and learning of biostatistics, data visualization, advanced modeling
• Data science education and curriculum development
• Spatial statistics and generalized linear mixed models in R
• Statistical consulting

My non-research interests include:

• 👨‍👩‍👦 Adventures with my son Link and husband Max
• 🏞️ Gardening and spending time outdoors
• 🎮 Gaming (especially Nintendo + PC)
• 📚 Reading
