Ed has designed and analyzed surveys across a wide variety of disciplines including social science, manufacturing, quality, sales and marketing, opinion research, retail, travel, customer satisfaction, employee satisfaction and more. Since 1998, Ed has designed and analyzed more than 200 web-based surveys. In addition to being an Amplify consultant, Ed is the founder and principal of Survey Design and Analysis.
Ed's approach to survey design and analysis focuses on gathering data that will inform business decisions.

Surveys using the panel methodology have had response rates of 70 to 80 percent.

He is a published author in statistical journals, and is the author of numerous conference papers. Ed has a Master's Degree in Applied Mathematics, and a Ph.D. in Statistics.
