Kristin Mussar is an Associate Director and data scientist with a decade of experience building production data pipelines and bioinformatics solutions that accelerate biomarker-driven decision making in clinical trials. At Pfizer she leads teams that standardize and automate messy, multi-source biomarker data to improve accessibility and quality control for downstream scientists. Her background spans industry and academia—from a PhD in Pharmacology to hands-on roles at Seagen and Fred Hutch—giving her deep domain expertise in biological data and translational research. She co-founded and serves as board president of Diversity in Data Science, spearheading programs like the Women in Data Science Puget Sound Conference to expand access for underrepresented groups. Kristin combines technical leadership with entrepreneurship and a knack for turning fragmented data into analyzable assets, and outside work she pursues creative outlets such as gardening and painting.
