Marisol Yake
Data Analyst & Researcher
Welcome in! My name is Marisol (she / they) and I currently work as a Data Analyst and Museum-focused Data Educator.
All of my work lives in a little pocket of science that is itself a collision of numerous fields of discipline: Information Science. It’s where I get to to apply and share my experiences with UX Design, Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW), Data Science, Programming, Philosophy, Anthropology, Sociology, History, and most recently Museum Collections.
To put it briefly, I care deeply about ensuring that implementations of technology or research respect cultural and ethical boundaries, and that all my practice reflects the values of reciprocity and autonomous engagement.
Organizations work because people do! When people come together to accomplish a common goal, there’s very little that can’t be done.
The core aim of my work is to extend the ability of tech and research to amplify the abilities of humanitarian workers, rather than impede them.
What I’m Reading Right Now
- Discipline and Punish (1975), Michel Foucault
- Deaccessioning and Its Discontents (2018), Martin Gammon
- Qu’est-ce la documentation? (1951), Suzanne Briet
- Traité de Documentation (1934), Paul Otlet
