Highly skilled data science professional with experience in fast-paced helpline operations and regional education sectors. I recently assisted leadership in refining the National Autism Helpline (NDIS), focused on data integration, wrangling, and visual storytelling. I grew up in a regional town, Warrnambool, as a refugee and recipient of the Sir John Monash Humanitarian Scholarship, with a continuous learning mindset, and I have a passion for delivering real outcomes. I am passionate about bridging the gap between business and technology to enhance the organisation’s digital journey.

• DNA Variants Sequencing Analysis, Aimed to predict the likelihood of CHIP, a mutation based on patient's DNA make-up, Handled structural error, missing data, outliers, and sorting category variables in 1 million chromosome locations, Visualised and quantified variables through extensive exploratory data analysis, Validated a strong correlation between above 0.5 Allele frequency, chromosome loci and positive case, Selected most frequent 200 chromosomes locations (region-based analysis), I trained the > 0.6 AF and chromosomes in Random Forrest and accurately predicted the mutations with a success rate of 96%. (Taken a lot of optimisations), Delivered optimised model that can readily indicate the possibility of a patient chance of having CHIP mutation
• Predicting the Age of a globular cluster, Observational research, Faculty of Astronomy & Astrophysics, Collected CCD images of a globular cluster with three astronomy students, Cleaned/reduced the noise in the raw science images by implementing shifting, scaling, and combining 500 images from various filters and applying flat field images., Heavy use of Python (astropy library), Taken all statistical measures mean, std, Poisson distribution to validate the consistency of photon counts and removing any hot pixels still there., Wrote code and modelled photometry, Compared with literature models (NASA archives)., Accurately predicted the cluster's age within ±2 million years, a high accuracy prediction, Delivered an end-to-end project management.
