Experienced Data Scientist delivering measurable business value through ML and analytics.
What I'm looking for
I’m an experienced Data Scientist with hands-on analytics experience and an MSc in Data Science, specialising in machine learning, statistical analysis, and business experimentation. I translate complex data into actionable insights and visualisations that help stakeholders make faster, clearer forecasting and planning decisions.
In my role at Deloitte Consulting, I led deep-dive analyses across 30+ patient-level and HCP datasets spanning 500K+ records for Pfizer, proactively identifying commercial opportunities that drove $200M+ in measurable business impact. I also developed reporting frameworks tracking sales trends, customer engagement, and prescribing performance—improving commercial effectiveness by 30%—and earned an Outstanding Performance Award for data quality and communication of technical findings. I enjoy working cross-functionally, mentoring junior analysts, and building analytics frameworks that teams adopt to make data-driven decisions.
