Summary
Charlie Hagedorn is a data scientist with 13 years of experience who blends experimental gravitational physics rigor with practical data-product work, currently consulting on precision metrology and optical sensing through Nanoradian. He has led gravity and dark-matter experiments at the University of Washington, developing high-sensitivity torsion balances and cryogenic/optical instrumentation, and later applied those quantitative and experimental-design skills to marketplace analytics at Rover.com. Based in Seattle, he also served as president and long-time board member of a Colorado water utility, overseeing operations that deliver drinking water to hundreds of households—an unusual mix of technical depth and civic responsibility. Colleagues rely on him for hard-to-measure problems: small-force sensing, optical angle metrology, and designing experiments that push detection limits while keeping practical deployment in mind.
