I solve problems with data

 

Gartner defines a Data Scientist as, “An individual that can work with data and analytical models to generate business insights that can be deployed across business processes.” 

Gartner was right, but the landscape for corporate data teams has evolved significantly. Today, organizations require a visionary who not only sees data as a product but also unites all facets of the data organization and its relevant stakeholders to maximize value.

Embracing the ethos of a Renaissance person and the agility of a change agent, my career trajectory has been anything but linear. Initially propelled by a passion for data and technology, my journey from creating efficient systems as a bar back to delving into the dynamic world of political campaigns and data-driven audience targeting has been underpinned by a constant drive for innovation and efficiency.

In my recent roles, I have championed the development of privacy-centric, bias-free data architectures that enhance ethical data usage and promote a truly data-driven decision-making culture. My approach to data governance and integrity, developed from extensive leadership in analytics, business intelligence, and data engineering, involves leading teams to build well-governed systems that support seamless analytics and personalized experimentation.

Influenced by the principles of "Who Moved My Cheese," my leadership style prioritizes adaptability and proactive change. Fatherhood has further refined my approach, teaching me to lead with compassion and foster an environment where learning from failure is a step toward growth.

As I look to the future, my goal is to continue this journey of impactful leadership, seeking new challenges that allow me to leverage my diverse background and passion for data to inspire and innovate within your team.
