My name is Nabil Arnaoot and I live in San Francisco. After twenty years in tech, most recently as a Business Process Engineer at Apple, I just finished an MS from Saint Mary's College in Business Analytics. My practicum project was mapping and analyzing internet access across the US.
I like using data to solve problems and guide strategy, and I'm currently looking for work. Drop me a line if you have any cool projects you'd like to collaborate on!
Fun fact: I'm a passionate reader, and occasional writer, of science fiction. I like the stuff that explores radically different ways people can live.
