In this episode, we’re joined by Kelly Bodwin — candy corn defender, board game enthusiast, and Associate Professor of Statistics and Data Science at Cal Poly. We discuss her path from English and French to statistics, how she builds teaching tools and navigates AI in the classroom, and what it takes to keep a programming community weird in the best possible way.
Episode notes
Kelly is curious, collaborative, and unafraid to lean in on quirky.
