Hi, I am Ishan Goel, a statistician, educator and founder of Thinking Bell.

I previously led data science research at VWO, where I built VWO's Stats Engine.

Today, I teach experimentation statistics through analogies, simulations, games, doodles and real-world problems, making difficult statistical ideas intuitive and useful.

I have also taught experimentation and statistics to cross-functional teams across product, marketing and data, including a 60-person training programme at The Economist.

My goal is simple: help people reason confidently about experiments without turning them into statisticians.
