Wendy L. Martinez, Ph.D.

Candidate for 2019 President-Elect of the American Statistical Association

“Building Bridges to Enlarge the ASA Big Tent for Statistics and Data Science.”

An ASA member asked me “Why do you support the ASA and want to be their President?” I said we need to do things we are passionate about when ‘our hearts sing.’ I realized this is why I am so excited about the opportunity to support the ASA as President – because it makes my heart sing to help shape the evolution of our field!
