about:
I build production-grade data and AI systems that solve real operational problems - not just models in notebooks.

Over the past 8 years I've designed and deployed end-to-end ML platforms across defense, financial services, and enterprise consulting. Most recently I built a predictive analytics platform for military supply chain operations combining an XGBoost risk classifier, Prophet-based demand forecasting, and interactive Power BI dashboards - serving executive, analyst, and operational audiences within a GCC-compliant Azure environment.

I've presented data-driven insights directly to senior leadership, influenced funding decisions, secured contract extensions, and contributed to business development - including co-authoring a ~$2M commercial proposal that integrated Claude (Anthropic's API) into a production AI architecture.

Outside my technical career, I founded Orange Peel - a direct-to-consumer lifestyle and apparel brand where I applied the same analytical mindset to a commercial environment. I leveraged AI tools for market research, ad targeting optimization, and content workflows across Meta Ads, email/SMS funnels, and organic growth channels. The brand grew to host events with 200+ attendees and landed co-branded partnerships with Porsche, Lululemon, and Arc'teryx - giving me firsthand commercial operating experience that most DS/AI engineers don't have.

Now I'm focused on bringing that depth to commercial industries - particularly FinTech, Energy, and Retail/E-commerce - where production ML, scalable data pipelines, and Azure/Fabric expertise drive real business outcomes.

headline: Cybersecurity | Governance, Risk & Compliance | Regulated Industries | Strategic Technology & Cybersecurity Leader

about:
Twenty-five years in enterprise technology has taught me one thing: cybersecurity transformation rarely fails on the technology. It fails when strategy, governance, and delivery stop speaking to each other - and regulators don't care which team dropped the ball.

Closing that gap is the work I've built my career around. Director of Cybersecurity and Risk at Org, advising regulated institutions across Europe on NIS2 readiness, ISO 27001, cyber operating model design, and operational resilience. I'm currently contributing to Ireland's National Cyber Security Bill, working with the NCSC to ensure the legislation is functional at the operational level for the entities it will govern.

I work the way Org does - advise, resource, deliver. Clear thinking, the right team alongside you, and outcomes your board and your engineers can both stand behind.

If you're preparing for NIS2, designing a cyber operating model, or stuck between "we should" and "we've done it," I'd welcome the conversation.

headline: Data Scientist @ Systemiq | Steel-IQ developer | Open-source modelling for heavy industry decarbonisation

about:
I'm a data scientist at Systemiq working on heavy industry decarbonisation. Most of my time goes into Steel-IQ, an open-source model of the global steel transition.

Steel is one of the hardest industries to decarbonise, and the decisions involved (where to invest, what to retrofit, how policy shifts the economics) are hard to reason about without a model. Steel-IQ simulates how scrap and ore availability, tariffs, carbon pricing and subsidies play out across the global steel system. The model is fully open-source, so anyone can check the assumptions behind the results and run their own scenarios.

I've been one of its core developers since 2025, working across the model itself, the infrastructure around it, and the documentation that makes it usable for people outside our team. The part I own is the Plant Agent Module: it treats every steel plant as its own agent, making techno-economic decisions year by year, so the dynamics of the whole industry emerge from thousands of individual choices rather than top-down assumptions.

My background is physics (MSci, UCL) and data science (MSc, UCL), and most of my work comes down to turning complicated real-world questions into models. The wider interest behind it is low-carbon energy systems and industrial decarbonisation modelling. Steel is where that's focused right now.

about:
In meiner Arbeit begleite ich Organisationen dabei, komplexe Veränderungen zu gestalten. Mich interessieren Strukturen genauso wie die Menschen, die in ihnen arbeiten. Denn Veränderung gelingt für mich dort, wo beides zusammenkommt.
Ich arbeite an der Schnittstelle von Organisationsentwicklung, Transformation, Projektmanagement und systemischer Beratung. Besonders gerne dort, wo unterschiedliche Perspektiven zusammenkommen und aus Komplexität Klarheit entstehen kann.

Parallel arbeite ich als Künstlerin. Beide Arbeitsfelder beschäftigen sich für mich mit derselben Frage: Wie entstehen neue Perspektiven und Entwicklung?

Ich freue mich auf den Austausch zu Transformation, Organisationsentwicklung und Führung – ebenso wie auf Gespräche über spannende Rollen, Projekte und Kooperationen.

headline: Principal BI Analyst | Business Intelligence Expert | Driving Informed Decision-Making | Strategic Insights | Stakeholder Engagement

about:
I'm a passionate data & analytics specialist with a proven track record of transforming raw data into actionable insights that drive informed decision-making. In my current role at the Victorian Centre for Data Insights, I lead the Business Intelligence team within a cross-functional branch operating under agile methodology. Notable achievements include spearheading impactful projects such as the Know Your Council Dashboard, where we brought reporting in-house, resulting in substantial cost savings. My expertise shines through in the refactoring of the Public Health Insights Victoria product, where I optimized Power BI dataset refresh and achieved an impressive 90% reduction in daily delivery time.

During my tenure in the Industry Engagement and Enforcement Operation, I emerged as a crucial technical liaison between IT and the business. I played a key part in ensuring the Case Management System (Salesforce Service Cloud) aligned with the complex business needs, enhancing operational efficiency and
decision-making capabilities. Simultaneously, I architected a tactical Cloud Analytics Solution in Microsoft Azure and Power BI, surmounting challenges in licensing, funding, and support. This implementation facilitated secure intelligence & reporting capabilities.

My professional journey includes a significant tenure at Victoria Police, where, as a Senior Business Intelligence Analyst, I actively managed the SAS Enterprise Business Intelligence environment. Here, I worked on end-to-end solutions for multiple departments, fostering effective communication channels between IT and business units. This ensured a shared understanding of objectives, facilitating collaborative decision-making. Throughout my career, my unwavering commitment to optimizing technology solutions has be
