Nathan Cantafio

Graduate Student · UBC Statistics

I am an M.Sc. student in statistics at UBC. Along the way I've picked up some applied work doing statistical consulting with UBC's Applied Statistics and Data Science group (ASDA). I'm currently on a co-op at Health Canada. I care about doing rigorous statistics carefully and explaining it clearly, two things that unfortunately don't always go together. Outside of stats, I'm usually playing or watching soccer. I helped start our department’s futsal team, and I'm a Whitecaps supporter. I'm also into board games (lately Catan and Hanabi). Hanabi is a game about getting a message across with very limited information, which is either a nice break from statistics or more of the same.
