The recent emergence of data privacy legislation (e.g. GDPR and CCPA) signals a maturing era of data regulation that requires counsel from hybrid lawyer/data scientist professionals. I am interested in the coalescence of data-driven analytics and the longstanding heuristics that inform legal judgements.
