Katie Bent-Koerick joined CJA in October 2020, where she now acts as a Data Analyst. She has a B.A. in Sociology, and an M.A. in Applied Quantitative Research. Her postgraduate training in advanced statistical methods and data science allows her to contribute to CJA’s research from every angle – from producing qualitative and quantitative analyses on the front end, to supporting database development on the back end. Katie plays a key role in managing and transforming CJA’s vast raw data, programming new measures, producing CJA’s Annual Report, and maintaining effective interdepartmental collaboration between Research and IT. Katie is proud to use her keen logic skills and ability to make sense of even the most challenging data to contribute to CJA’s meaningful work, as demonstrated by her revival of data collected years ago as part of an RCT that she was able to clean, analyze, and publish significant findings on.
