Caribbean Data Scientist Explains How to Go Out and Get Your Career (Mark Moyou) - KNN Ep. 190

Today, I had the pleasure of interviewing Mark Moyou. Mark is a Senior Data Scientist and the host of the AI portfolio podcast and the Caribbean Tech Pioneers podcast. He grew up in Trinidad and Tobago, and his work is deeply inspired by his family and upbringing there. In this episode, we dive into how he landed his first job in the States, what makes a successful data scientist, how to make meaningful connections, and how work at a large company is different than his previous jobs.

The Ken's Nearest Neighbors Podcast is about telling the unique stories of the people in the data and AI space. In highly technical fields, we often lose sight of the individuals who are making the positive change. The podcast focuses on who these people are and how they have approached the big decisions in their life that shaped their world view and career. While the podcast is centered on a technical domain, the conversations often touch on personal philosophy, the pursuit of meaning, and how we define success in our career and lives.
