Interesting! How did you go from Math PhD to econ professor? I doubt you just applied to some econ tenure position. Please elaborate, I am very curious about your history!
The reason I am asking this is because I'm enrolled in an econ PhD myself (spec. in advanced econometrics) and I am extremely interested in machine learning and data science. I am constantly looking for ways to combine the two in interesting ways. It's nice to meet someone like-minded.
