As a Data and Analytics professional, my career has spanned engagements with leading corporations, SMBs, and startups. I’ve been able to bring complimentary skills in content, user experience, and coding. This background gives me an edge in extracting actionable insights from datasets.
Data Visualisation and Analytics: I can create dynamic data dashboards, leveraging Google Analytics 4 for in-depth insights. This covers advertising, lead generation, and eCommerce projects. It also extends to sophisticated tools like Metabase and LookerStudio for data presentation.
Data Acquisition and Management: I’m experienced with the Google Marketing Platform for targeted data acquisition. I’ve utilised BigQuery, SQL, and various API integrations (JSON, REST, Graph, XML) for data management and analysis.
Advanced Analysis and Modelling: Skilled in data analysis, visualisation, and modelling, with a foundational understanding of machine learning principles. I’m pretty reasonable with Python. I devised solutions that drive business growth and decision making.
Innovative Applications: I’ve demonstrated a capability for employing data in diverse applications. This has included automating content publishing and billing systems. I’ve enhanced UX and customer research. My work on a product serving 77 million worldwide billing customers shows my ability to manage and leverage data at scale.
Team Collaboration and Tools: I’m adept with collaboration software and analytical tools. I excel in team settings, delivering results that inform and advance business objectives.
My greatest strength lies in my ability to dig up deep insights from data. I’ve used this to guide business strategies and foster growth. With a history of applying data to practical challenges—ranging from content optimisation to customer data platform integration—I bring a wealth of experience and a proven track record of success.
Thank you for this opportunity to present to you. I’d love a chance to learn more about your business and demonstrate how I can help your reach your goals.

I was working on some AI projects late last year. Two involve generative audio for podcasts, video and help content. Another is a sentiment analysis model. In another, I'm running experiments in several mediums for a business integrating AI workflow. I’ve been downloading models, merging and training them using a tool recommended by the AI meetup group in Sydney. I’ve been exploring ‘Human-in-the-loop’ workflow.

Stephen Salgo sales (now acquired) was the leading provider of hospitality supplies. Crockery, cutlery, glassware, kitchenware, bain-marie, pots, uniforms, footwear and more. Approximately 9,000 products in total. I built a full catalogue system for all the products based on the print version that was being used.

Users could search, create their order and submit it. The order was transferred to the warehouse for packing and delivery. 12 month contract.
Jeremy Oliver tastes 10,000 wines every year and makes tasting notes in his database. I made some modifications to the database. The resulting tagged content was then imported into the layout program. This meant that all the formatting was in place, including colours and icons. This saved 50% of the time of manual publishing alone.
