Random joyful notes about R and music

Author: Genelle Denzin

I’m a HUD TA provider, data analyst, and equity advocate with over 25 years of experience in database design, analysis, and reporting, including 14 years in homelessness services data. As the creator of Modal Metrics, I focus on advancing transparency, accessibility, and equity in data-driven decision-making. I specialize in developing open-source tools, like the Eva Shiny app, to improve data quality and empower organizations tackling complex social challenges. Rooted in a commitment to housing justice and disability advocacy, I bring a unique perspective as a neurodivergent professional with a passion for creating systems that work for everyone.
