Who am I?

I am a University of Bath Mathematics graduate with over two years’ experience in data analysis and architecture.

My academic background in mathematics, coupled with my practical experience at Yo Auto Ltd., has equipped me with a robust and widely applicable skill set. I have academic experience with statistical computing and machine learning concepts, and am proficient in R, Python, SQL and JavaScript.

During my time at Yo Auto Ltd. I demonstrated my ability to drive efficiency and create impact through data-driven solutions. I streamlined data processing across various formats, eliminating hours of daily tasks, conducted statistical analyses that directly influenced pricing strategies, and presenting findings to management in clear, actionable formats.

I am actively seeking opportunities where I can leverage and grow my analytical and programming skills.

Frequently Asked Questions

I have completed several data science projects, including machine learning models and data visualizations. I'm proficient in Python, R, and SQL, and have experience with tools like TensorFlow and Tableau.

I'm particularly interested in applying data science to Genetics and Fertility. I also have interests in; manifacturing, defence and intelligence. However, I have a genuine interest in the process itself so i am more than eager to get experience in any field.

While I don't currently hold specific data science certifications, I have a strong foundation in the field through my Mathematics BSc from the University of Bath, which included modules in statistical computing. I'm always eager to expand my knowledge and skills. I believe my academic background, practical experience at yoauto, and continuous self-learning demonstrate my commitment to the field and my ability to quickly acquire and apply new knowledge.

Absolutely! I'm comfortable working remotely and have experience working remotely for yoauto.

I'm a quick learner and enjoy staying up-to-date with the latest technologies. When I get a problem I dont yet know how to solve, I abstract and decompose the problem into small clearly defined tasks. With the help of google & LLMs I research and complete each task, testing them thoroughly to avoid errors.

I'm committed to maintaining the highest standards of data privacy and ethics. I take GDPR and best practice very seriously.

When I was working at Yo Auto, I had to present the results frequently and would be questioned on them rigorously. I presented data to a mixed audience of technical and non-technical people. I aim to create one page Summaries that provide the relevant context and results, if appropriate displayed in charts and graphs. I keep the raw data and results on hand if there are questions about it's validity or greater detail is requested. After the presentation, I will ask some questions myself to ensure I have accurately conveyed what I intended.
