Independent Data Consultant

End-to-end expertise across
the entire data stack

From raw data pipelines to production-grade analytics and data strategy — I help teams build data functions that are reliable, scalable, and genuinely useful to the business.

Get in touch

A generalist who has seen every layer

With over a decade working across every discipline in data, I bring a perspective that most specialists can't — I can build it, analyse it, and explain why it matters to the business.

My background is a blend of mathematics and computer engineering, with graduate degrees from a leading technical university. That combination gave me a deep quantitative foundation and a bias for building things that actually run in production.

Over the years I have held roles across the full breadth of data work: data analyst, data scientist, data engineer, software engineer, and tech lead. I have operated as an individual contributor driving hands-on delivery, and as a leader setting strategy, growing teams, and managing stakeholders at the executive level.

My career has spanned large enterprises, a mobility startup, and a digital health scale-up that I joined early and rode through hypergrowth (10× in three months), an IPO, and an eventual acquisition. Each phase taught me a different set of lessons about what it takes to make data valuable — and what kills it.

What makes me different is that I don't have a specialisation silo. Most data professionals are strong on either the engineering or the analytics side. I am fluent in both, which means I can design systems that are architecturally sound and analytically meaningful at the same time — and I can speak the language of every stakeholder in the room.

Proven at every stage of data maturity

I have built data functions from zero, scaled them through rapid growth, and matured them into trusted, org-wide platforms. I know where the traps are at each phase — and how to avoid them.
