01: About

Bridging code, statistics, and business decisions.

I studied Computer Science, which pulled me into data and a year of machine learning research. The technical side came easily, but I kept hitting the same wall: I could build the model, not always frame the business question behind it. So I pursued a Master of Business Analytics at Macquarie University to close that gap. The projects I've enjoyed most since sit at the intersection of technical rigour and real business stakes: energy market analysis, carbon emissions modelling, retail forecasting. I care less about the tools (Python, SQL, Power BI) than what they let me do, which is turn ambiguous problems into clear recommendations. I'm looking for Data Analyst roles where turning messy data into clear decisions is the job.
