Alexandra Sanne
Ali is a lead data analytics instructor at General Assembly. By day, she leads customer engagement data, reporting, and analytics at Atlassian. By nights (and weekends), she leads analytics-based courses and workshops at GA and has taught in both San Francisco and Washington, DC. Prior to Atlassian, she managed analytics for the Owner Intelligence group at Hilton, delivering impactful analysis to drive data-based decisions within the Hilton customer organization.

Ali earned her Masters in Systems Engineering from George Washington University and is passionate about combining systems thinking with data analysis, helping organizations to transform their decision-making processes to be data-driven and improve experiences and products for the end-consumer through data. In her free time, Ali can be found enjoying Northern California's outdoors, whether on a boat on the Bay or enjoying Napa's wineries.

In recognition of her exemplary service in the classroom, Ali has been selected as a member of General Assembly's Distinguished Faculty program.

David Napoli
David Napoli, a Senior Consultant in Analytics and Data Visualization, has worked with data for over 20 years as an analyst, actuary, statistician, research manager, and director. His experience includes evaluation and outcomes studies, ROI analysis, IBNR determination, predictive modeling, risk adjustment methodologies, advanced data visualization, dashboard design and implementation, database development and management, and identifying and evaluating trends and forces in data. David has extensive experience working with claims data, including for Medicaid, Medicare, and Commercial lines of business. He recently held the position of Director of Business Intelligence for a nonprofit health plan. David’s educational background includes Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in aeronautical engineering (yes – he was a rocket scientist), and early in his career he realized he desired to concentrate his professional efforts in an industry focused on helping people more than his fondness for space exploration. He also completed coursework towards his doctorate in Health Services Research with a focus on Biostatistics at the University of Colorado School of Public Health (All but Dissertation).

In recognition of his exemplary service in the classroom, David has been selected as a member of General Assembly's Distinguished Faculty program.
