A global pandemic, a sluggish economy…swarms of murder hornets!?!? While few of us would nominate 2020 for a best year in recent memory award, there were a few positives to come out of the year. In July, for example, Sherry Fang joined the JMP Division. A Systems Engineer in the Pre-Sales group in JMP China, Sherry came to us after earning her master’s degree in applied statistics from Shanghai University of Finance and Economics. When she’s not consulting with JMP customers or solving their analytical problems, she’s out running, reading or watching movies. Read on for more fun facts about Sherry.
