Gretchen Pfau
Statistical Analyst
Gretchen Pfau started at Lake Research Partners as an intern in 2009, before becoming the field director and then moving over to the statistical programming department in 2013. She specializes in survey sampling, voter turnout models, and statistical modeling. She has also acquired the mostly useless party trick of being able to name the county that most major cities are in.
Gretchen grew up and lives in St. Paul, Minnesota, where she was introduced to political campaigns at an early age, volunteering with DFL campaigns as soon as she could knock on doors. She holds a B.A. in Political Science and Statistics from the University of Chicago and an M.A. in Government, with a specialization in Applied Politics, from American University.
