Hi there, my name is Timothy Brathwaite.

I’m a data scientist.
Previously, I worked a data scientist at Stitch Fix and as a research scientist at Lyft.

Before this, I completed my PhD (2018) at UC Berkeley in Transportation Engineering, under the advising of Professor Joan L. Walker. My thesis won the first place, 2018 Eric Pas Dissertation Prize from the International Association for Travel Behavior.

My research, then and now, focuses on discrete choice modeling, machine learning, applied statistics, and causal inference. In terms of applications, bicycle demand modeling is a topic near and dear to my heart. So much so that I focused my entire dissertation on it.

Beyond my technical interests, I’m a certified peer support specialist in the state of California. I’m also an Internal Family Systems-informed practitioner through IFSCA’s Stepping Stones program.

In this blog, you’ll find my thoughts, reflections, and short snippets of code demonstrating my ideas on the topics above.

Feel free to have a look around, and thanks for your interest!
