Meet the Permit Philly team! Today: Rei Mariman, one of our Permit Coordinators.
Rei comes to Permit Philly from a role as Director of Data Computing and Research Support for a research lab within the Wharton AI and Analytics Initiative. Before that, she was the Politics Department Coordinator at Princeton University. Armed with this data analysis experience, Rei devises internal software tools for the team when she’s not working directly on client projects.
Unsurprisingly, given this background, Rei is a very systematic thinker and planner. She takes on a lot of our cases in towns, townships, and boroughs outside Philadelphia itself, and always leaves the team with a detailed report on each municipal process. Brett frequently muses aloud about recording some kind of useful information only for Rei to tell him she already has a spreadsheet for that.
