Instructors
James Weichert he/him
Hi y’all! I’m a recent Berkeley graduate from Virginia. At Cal, I majored in Computer Science and Data Science with a minor in Public Policy, and in the fall I’ll be attending Virginia Tech to pursue an MS in Computer Science. I love cooking, reading, watching soccer, and coffee. This is my second time teaching Data 6 and I am so excited to be returning to this amazing class this summer! I hope you enjoy learning data science as much as I do :)
Jonathan Ferrari he/they
Hi, my name is Jonathan, I’m a rising Senior majoring in Data Sci, Cog Sci, and Psych, with a minor in CS. When I’m not teaching or in class, you can usually find me at a cafe around campus, playing video games with friends, or out at a nearby trail hiking! I love to travel; a fun fact about me is that i’ve been to 47 states and 2/3 of the national parks! This is my first time teaching Data 6, though I have previously taught for other courses such as Data 8 and CS 61A. Feel free to reach out anytime, I’m happy to talk about anything, whether it is course related, career or academic related, or anything else! :)
