About Scott Ruddell
I am a linguist, data engineer, and taxonomist who enjoys solving difficult problems that require logic and critical thinking. I take pride in being able to, from end-to-end, transform messy, unstructured data into semantically meaningful structured data that can be leveraged by software and machine learning algorithms. In my free time I enjoy studying languages, learning new technologies, and playing video games. I am also a huge fan of the NBA and have recently found joy in applying data analytics to provide insights for managing my fantasy basketball team.
