Profiling Top Kagglers: Owen Zhang, Currently #1 in the World

Next up in our series on top Kagglers is the #1: Owen Zhang (Zhonghua Zhang). Owen comes from an engineering background and currently works as the Chief Product Officer at DataRobot. Back in 2011 I had just switched to analytics as a full time job (after several years working in IT), and was eager to improve my skills and to "prove myself". So it was fortuitous that Kaggle came along with the first Allstate competition. Being in the same industry I felt I had some advantage as well.
