I love being an analyst! From New Zealand’s COVID-19 Government (AoG) response to live pursuits at police command centres, and writing official statistical publications on various subject-matters, I have worked as a critical contributor in various roles for the New Zealand civil services. Specifically, writing tactical, operational, and strategic intelligence reports to help prevent immigration, border, and criminal risk is my forte. I enjoy the process of information research and analysis because it satisfies my curious nature and my inherent need to do meaningful work. I believe that helping protect the safety and security of a person, region or nation is among the highest and most satisfying services to ones country.Growth mindsets and new ideas inspire me both in my personal and professional life.Therefore, continuous improvement and process automation are my other two passions at work. Throughout my career, I have successfully automated several routine and manual processes resulting in financially measurable efficiency gains both in the public and private sector.My colleagues describe me as a versatile, diligent, helpful and creative person with a direct approach to work and communication. I have always been appreciated for being a valued team member and have equally enjoyed working in open-minded, collaborative, and supportive team environments.I am a self-taught artist and run a small handmade portraits business in my downtime. If you resonate with my professional and business interests, I would love to hear from you!
