Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMark White is a Senior Data Scientist and quantitative social scientist with nine years of experience translating social science methods into data-driven product and policy insights. He combines a PhD in Social Psychology with a quantitative methodology minor to build rigorous polling, experimentation, and analytics pipelines across industries from political research to e-commerce. As Principal Consultant at markhw LLC and in senior roles at Etsy, YouGov, BlueLabs, and now H&R Block, he blends hands-on modeling with product-facing storytelling to drive decisions. Mark is equally comfortable designing surveys and causal inference studies as he is putting models into production, often bridging academic rigor with business constraints. Based in Kansas City, he brings a practitioner’s focus on reproducibility and interpretability that makes complex findings actionable for stakeholders. An underappreciated asset: his background in both psychology and analytics helps him surface behavioral levers that standard data teams often miss.
