About

She holds a BS in Computer Science from UC Berkeley (2016) and a Master of Journalism from UC Berkeley (2018) where she focused on data-journalism. At Bloomberg her work focused on quantitative consumer-tech market analysis - market share, pricing, sentiment scoring. At ServiceAgent she writes the analytical pieces and comparison-table content, working closely with Dr. Aisha Williams on the methodology disclosures. Jessica is fluent in SQL, Python, and statistical analysis - her articles are typically the ones with the most rigorous data work behind them.
