Simon Joyce

I grew up in Ireland, where I earned my BSc. and MSc. in Mathematics from NUI Maynooth. Then I moved to America where I earned my PhD. in Mathematics from Binghamton University. I taught college mathematics for roughly 10 years during graduate school and have tutored with Tutor.com. I am currently working towards a career in Data Science at NYC Data Science Academy.
