Jeri Mulrow
Jeri Mulrow turned in her first statistics book after the semester thinking it was boring. Her college adviser insisted she take more statistics classes, however, including regression, analysis of variance, and design of experiments. She was hooked after that. Today, Mulrow has more than 30 years of experience in applied statistics, working in various occupations and for several federal agencies. She and her husband recently set up a scholarship fund in statistics and data science at Colorado State University, their alma mater.
