• Took part in a competition where I used Python and my data science skills to make predictions about the results of football games. • Cleaned, analysed and visualised a large dataset (1.6 million records with over 50 variables) and then applied various algorithms to make predictions e.g. Random Forrest, Gradient boosting algorithms, Logistic and Linear Regression. • I learned a lot about working independently on a project and why planning out and making clean and efficient code is more important than just coding the first solution that comes to your mind. • Learned about the importance of implementing custom tests to ensure your program will notify you if there are any unexpected results.

• Selected to work in a team of 8 students to consult for a $2m venture backed silicon-valley firm. • We had to research the best strategy for market penetration, where to enter the market and how to price the product. • Explored different markets and assessed their viability and suitability for our client. • I took the initiative by conducting interviews and surveys to collect my own data as their was very little available on the market in hand. I had to be creative to make recommendations on the small amount of data we had. • Used the data I had collect to devise two different pricing strategies, based on the product itself and existing competitors
• Learnt about the importance of structuring and teamwork in consultancy and got a chance to implement these skills as we pitched to companies wanting to hire consultants. I became a consultant for an educational online platform. • I primarily worked as the data analyst. I introduced them to Facebook Graph Search and analysed their online standing with Google Analytics. From this data, I made recommendations on markets they should enter, how they can alter their website to maximise engagement and strategic partners they should contact which could make a huge impact on their business. Alongside this I also used the data from GA to create a strategy for marketing on their social media pages. • My role also included increasing the online presence of the business. This included planning and implementing an online competition. I also adapted what they posted on social media and increased their conversion rates from Facebook & LinkedIn.
