Think of me as...
Elizabeth Coker, and what I do is find the statistics. I am a strong advocate of respect for numbers and data, especially in the world we live in today. The accuracy, validity and reliability of data is essential to building a world that is sustainable. The sustainability of our collective health, social and economic well-being is my passion. We can make it together, one data at a time!
