**Currently on a one year career break** I am an accomplished data scientist/solution architect with over 7 years of experience in leading and managing data science teams. I have proven track record of delivering high value-added data science and analytics use cases that enable strategic transformation objectives. I am adept at designing, developing and implementing analytics-as-a-service (AaaS) solutions that maximize the value of data. I have worked in several large-scale sectors such as life sciences, advanced manufacturing, healthcare, food, and bioinformatics. My previous solutions have won Project of the Year Award or are commercially licensed. At EY, I have led teams through data analytics/science projects at critical public and private levels, embedding data driven approach for decision making. I'm keen to grow our Advanced Manufacturing and Life Sciences domain, so please reach out if you're interested in knowing more. I'm a strong believer in sharing knowledge and experiences, hence I founded the Data Science Community of Practice in EY Ireland. We deliver hands-on live coding workshops to our colleagues, and invite industry leaders to provide insights in current market trends and where the future of Data Science might be. I am a Coursera instructor teaching core concepts in statistics, data science and machine learning to thousands of learners worldwide. I create and record the content myself and provide assessment and feedback before the learners can earn their certificate.
