Mattie Toll is passionate about applying analytical tools to advance marine research and conservation efforts. Her educational background blends the life and data sciences, with an undergraduate degree in biology from Pomona College and a Master’s in analytics from Georgia Institute of Technology. Mattie also brings nearly a decade of hands-on experience with marine mammals at accredited zoological facilities across the country, and she currently splits her time between being a dolphin trainer at Georgia Aquarium and an analyst/programmer for OSA.

Transitioning from working in the water to behind the computer, Mattie specializes in creating compelling visualizations that transform data into insight. In addition to her programmatic expertise, she supports bioacoustics data analysis at OSA. As part of this, she contributes to the development of deep learning models for automated call detection and enjoys finding creative ways to bring new perspectives to complex problems. Outside of work, you can find Mattie coaching functional fitness, traveling the world in search of cool wildlife, and hanging out with her very sweet (and very anxious) dog, Kat.
