Summary
Sean Craig is a data manager and full-stack social scientist with eight years of experience building and maintaining policy datasets to evaluate early-childhood programs like paid family leave and child care. Trained in English literature and law (JD) before earning an MA in political science, he blends humanistic curiosity with rigorous empirical methods to translate complex social questions into actionable evidence. He designs empirical and cost-estimation models, oversees data security and compliance, and mentors research assistants while rapidly picking up new technical skills (R, Stata, Bash, Git, Qualtrics, LaTeX). A former university instructor who taught research design and US government to large undergraduate cohorts, he excels at tailoring communications to diverse audiences and finding creative analytic angles. Outside work he quietly pursues "puzzlemania," bringing a detective’s patience to messy, policy-relevant data.
