Here's some more info about me
At the beginning of 2018, I was uncertain about the direction my life was heading. I had a brief stint in the film industry as a production assistant and production coordinator, where I was first exposed to Excel and data management. This experience sparked an interest in a data-related career. After reflecting on my passions and interests, I decided to pursue a bachelor’s degree in economics and psychology while immersing myself in learning everything I could about programming, data analytics, and the tech industry.
Over time, I built a small data analytics portfolio and completed numerous online courses and tutorials, which eventually led me to secure a job as a projects analyst and then as a business operations analyst. These roles solidified my domain and technical knowledge, giving me valuable insights into the appropriate progression for my career.
I later transitioned into a data analyst role, where I applied my understanding of data analytical frameworks and methodologies, along with my technical skills, to analyse data and derive actionable insights.
I then transitioned into a role as a business analyst; I focused on understanding organisational operations and processes to implement improvements. I also played a key role in designing, developing, maintaining, and improving the data architecture and infrastructure of our organization.
I’m currently embracing my responsibilities as a data architect, where I design the foundational data architecture and infrastructure that ensures data is efficiently organised, stored, processed, and accessed. This role allows me to align our data systems with business goals, ensuring they support our evolving needs and strategic initiatives.

I believe that having an online presence is becoming increasingly indispensable in the modern work environment. The purpose of this website is to provide a single point of contact for interested parties to engage with me and my work.
Looking back, from a young age I would record data and try to use this to my advantage; for example, recording my swimming times to determine which technique was faster. Professionally, however, I have been designing databases and performing data analyses since 2018 in the film industry and in various other freelance projects. Get in touch to find out more!
Yes, I do. I remember creating my first database using Microsoft Access in 2017. It's incredible how things have changed since then. I am proficient in SQL and use it daily to perform my duties as a data analyst. I also have experience with database development and data warehousing, having maintained personal databases using MySQL and Microsoft SQL Server.
I am interested in understanding business problems, and conceptualising, developing and implementing solutions that are data-driven. Additionally, I am interested in exploring datasets, without a pre-defined set of problems, and developing roadmaps or next-step reports to explore how that data can be used.
