Sergey Fogelson
VP of Analytics and Measurement Sciences, Viacom
Sergey loves applying his quantitative skills to large-scale data intensive problems, mentoring junior colleagues, and is an avid learner who is always trying to refine his programming chops and to apply state of the art analytical and statistical methods to tackling hard data problems. He began his career as an academic at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire, where he researched the neural bases of visual category learning and obtained his Ph.D. in Cognitive Neuroscience. After leaving academia, Sergey got into the rapidly growing startup scene in the NYC metro area, where he has worked as a data scientist in digital advertising, cybersecurity, finance, and media. He is heavily involved in the NYC-area teaching community and has taught courses at various bootcamps, and has been a volunteer teacher in computer science through TEALSK12. When Sergey is not working or teaching, he is probably hiking. (He thru-hiked the Appalachian trail before graduate school).
