Josh Nonet-Black graduated in the UK in 2020 with a degree in astrophysics and then joined Deloitte’s data science and AI team in the Risk Analytics function. Josh is not the usual senior guest you are used to meet on my podcast, who can share their decades of wisdom. I, however, invited Josh to teach us his wisdom, not so many of us have: he has been blind since birth. And this hasn't stopped him to read astrophysics, ski, or build machine learning models. 

I invited him to talk about his process of programming without sight and to unpack why sight limitation becomes an opportunity to understand the world beyond its three dimensional boundaries. Being blind empowers Josh with abstract thinking and, I would add, with the ability to solve problems in a different and better way. I believe that the value he adds to his teams is second to none.
