Hashim Mustanir Tirmizi

Research Data Scientist at LMKR.

At LMKR I work on risk and policy questions in public transit, agricultural technology, and oil and gas where much of my work turns operational data into estimates of hazard, loss, and exposure.

My PhD is in Demography, from the University of Pennsylvania, earned alongside an MA in Statistics and Data Science at the Wharton School. Before Penn, I studied Mathematics at the University of Illinois.
