About Mark Lobin

I use data science and technology to improve public policy and create social impact across government and non-government entities. I work full time with the Environmental Protection Agency to improve data maturity, utilize data science to optimize existing workflows, and develop new tools to increase data quality. Additionally, I founded NGO PopulisTech to lead a work group to develop Guarani Ayvu, an Android App for Guarani, the most widely spoken indigenous language in South Downloads)
