Stephen Tueller is a Senior Statistician and Research Quantitative Psychologist at RTI International with over a decade of experience translating complex methodological problems into practical solutions for health, behavioral health, and justice research. He combines deep expertise in R—two decades of coding and package development—with rigorous quantitative training (Ph.D. in Quantitative Psychology) to build reproducible tools that support studies on medication adherence, metabolomics, Medicaid, human trafficking, and criminal justice. Known for meticulous data analysis and simulation work, he has a track record of developing both private and public R packages that make advanced methods accessible to applied teams. Based in Smithfield, Utah, he brings a pragmatic, team-focused approach to methodological consulting and software engineering, often bridging theoretical development and real-world implementation. A less obvious strength is his sustained commitment to operationalizing research software—ensuring statistical innovations are packaged, documented, and usable by stakeholders beyond the lab.
