Why did you choose McCourt? I really valued being in the most important policy hub in the world and learning form experts with such proximity to actual policy. Combined with the unique curriculum of the Data Science for Public Policy program it was a no-brainer. 

What has been the best part of your experience so far? Being at McCourt has allowed me to be in the heart DC and thus be exposed to people working day to day in actual Policy. During my time I have been able to meet several important figures in and around government whether they be the senior officials from the White House, Department of Homeland Security or the Environmental Protection agency.
