Emma Slayton

I currently serve as a Data Education Librarian at the Carnegie Mellon University Libraries. I am an expert in data and AI literacies, and create educational content to help students, faculty, and staff at CMU upskill in these areas. As the Libraries data visulization specalist, I teach and consult on creating effective graphs and using data visulziation software. 

As an archaeologist, I focused on using computer modeling to hypothesize the location of early canoe routes in the Caribbean. I have experience working with GIS and other data visualization tools. This knowledge aids my work at CMU, where I plan workshops and other content to promote the use of various data visualization methods, tools, and techniques.
