Meet WTM Ambassador Sunny ✨

Sunny Zhu is, in her own words, a 'statistics geek' with over a decade of experience in the tech industry. She currently works as the ESG Data & Analytics Lead at Indeed, in New York and thinks of herself as the bridge that connects data with people.

Sunny is a strong believer that data science is for everyone, and she is passionate about translating complicated data into clear business strategies and execution plans.

As a Women Techmakers Ambassador, a BetterUp certified coach, and POINT Speaker, she is committed to making the field more accessible to women and other underrepresented groups by providing mentorship and being a frequent speaker at data conferences.

When asked what advice she would give to women who are interested in getting into tech, Sunny said: "Who you are is more important than what you do. Your work does not determine your worth. Be the change you want to see in the world!"
