Data Analyst turning large datasets into forecasting and executive insights.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Data Analyst with 2 years’ experience driving strategic decisions through advanced analytics in Australia’s public and private sector. I turn complex data into executive-level insights that support measurable business impact.
I’ve built forecasting models using Linear Regression and XGBoost from 10M+ records, achieving 95% accuracy in predicting service demand across multiple business units. I also analysed pricing and utilization data to inform $50M+ in funding allocations, uncovering underutilized revenue streams and cost optimization opportunities.
To scale reporting, I built automated Python/T-SQL ETL pipelines to process millions of records daily, reducing manual workload by 80% and enabling same-day reporting. I designed executive Tableau dashboards for 20+ statewide KPIs with drill-down functionality for senior leaders and non-technical stakeholders.
I’m equally comfortable with applied ML and data quality work, including uncovering revenue leakage in 3% of episodes through statistical analysis and building ML models to flag data-quality issues and anomalies. I also deliver consulting-style recommendations by identifying root causes and improving automation efficiency for clients.
