Chris Lindner talks about his Astronomy background, his transition into Data Science, as well as his stint as a professional Poker player. He also discusses how as a graduate student he was involved in starting a study group about entering Data Science, how there is no real method to interviews, how he continues to stay connected to Academia through events like Astronomy on Tap, and what non-technical skills are important for Astronomers looking to become Data Scientists.  Links:Chris’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chris-lindner-170a0385/  CreditsIntro Music: Tonight At Eight by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com (no relation)Outro Music: Savour The Moment by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com (no relation)Co-Hosts: Jeffrey Silverman and Joseph A’HearnRecording: Jeffrey SilvermanEditing: Joseph A’HearnATDS Podcast Logo: Joseph A’HearnThumbnail Headshot Image: Chris LindnerThumbnail Design: Joseph A'Hearn Timecodes #Astronomy #DataScience #Transitions #Podcast #ATDS #Astro2Data
