User:Douglas Whitaker

Hello, my name is Douglas Whitaker and I am currently attending the University of Florida as a doctoral student in statistics education. I hope to do my share in contributing to Wikipedia; I would like to add photographs to Wikipedia and intend to do so from the image requests page; if you would like me to try and take a specific photo, just contact me and I'll see what I can do.

I also keep a blog that is loosely devoted to Statistics Education: douglaswhitaker.com. (Right now it is a hodgepodge of topics that interest me with a focus on statistics and graduate school.)

I want to improve my poor Spanish, so I'm trying to read and contribute to the Spanish language version of Wikipedia. Here is my userpage.
