I’m a Melbourne-based data scientist working across data architecture, engineering, and modelling. I’ve held senior, lead, and head of data science roles at Australian startups and also work independently with businesses.
I work with clients from initial requirements through to production, designing and building data systems for customer analytics and developing the models they support. My modelling work includes customer lifetime value, product recommendation, and marketing mix models.
I’ve established company-wide data standards and helped build data teams. That work has included hiring and onboarding data engineers and mentoring analysts.
My PhD research at the University of Melbourne focuses on symbolic regression and multi-objective optimisation.
