Synopsis

In this episode of the Data Journeys podcast, we have not one, but two guests!   Sivan Aldor-Noiman and Erik Andrejko join me from Wellio: an intelligent platform that uses machine learning and behavioral science to help people plan, shop, prepare and enjoy healthy meals at home.   Wellio is on a mission to decode how meals are prepared and enjoyed at home, both on an individual-level in terms of people’s preferences and on a global-level in terms of semantic & nutritional understanding of food.   Quite interestingly, Sivan began her career in the Israeli army, serving as an instructor for an anti-tank missile unit. Afterwards, she transitioned to school and received her undergraduate degree in Industrial Engineering and a Master in Statistics from the Technion Israel Institute of Technology. At 26 years old she moved to the U.S. to complete a PhD degree in Statistics from The Wharton Business School at the University of Pennsylvania. Since then, she’s spent the majority of her career at The Climate Corp
