k5cents/README.md

I'm an analyst at Catalist, where I work on polling and modeling voter behavior in the cloud. I have a Master's degree in Political Science from American University, where I studied the legislative process and predicting elections. I've worked in polling for the DCCC and data acquisition for the non-profit Investigative Reporting Workshop.
