Who is this guy?
Evan Wimpey is an analytics professional and stand-up comedian. Yes, dreams really do come true! With a background in statistics and economics, Evan has spent years analyzing data and delivering statistical models.

He performs data science comedy at conferences and events around the world. With his book, Predictable Jokes, Evan hopes to continue sharing laughs and making analytics available to all. Evan is open to any kind of event - including:
Conferences Set your conference apart with a hilarious keynote, entertaining happy-hour, or anything in between.
