Hi, I'm Toby. I like to make things. I try to make useful and beautiful things! I'm a co-founder of Development Data Lab, where we help solve major social problems in developing countries using novel datasets. I lead the Data Team at DDL, including all data science, data engineering, geospatial analysis, visualization and more.

My past lives include being a line cook at a fancy restaurant and a Fulbrighter to Ethiopia, where I worked on agricultural development projects alongside smallholder farmers. I also build furniture, restore old sailboats, and I really like maps.
