I am a Data, Analytics and AI Strategist with 30 years' experience and an MSc in Business Intelligence and Data Science from Sheffield Hallam University (UK), who is proficient in both strategy and execution of Analytics and Data Science solutions. As a Data, Analytics and AI Strategist, I have extensive experience in applying analytical skills to understand business requirements, design and implement data-driven solutions, and manage change effectively. I have demonstrated strategic thinking and team leadership abilities in leading and collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver strategic planning, communication, problem solving, and innovation. I have a strong passion for leveraging data and artificial intelligence to create value and impact for organisations and society.My proven track record to capitalize on what Data, Analytics and AI have to offer hinges on a series of fundamentals along the insights value chain. I have a deep insight into how a business operates from a process, people, technical, strategic, political, and cultural point of view, which enables me to adapt to any business situation.My practical approach for achieving data and analytics excellence, combined with my wide-ranging experience and ability to collaborate easily with customers from across all levels of the organisation, has provided me with great opportunities to lead multi-disciplined teams in highly challenging enterprise-wide projects. This approach does not just focus exclusively on data but on the data lifecycle and the process of turning that data into information and actionable insights. The biggest successes stemmed not simply from technical excellence but softer factors such as a deep understanding of business problems; building the trust of decision-makers; effective leveraging of data and analytics; explaining results in simple, powerful ways; establishing a Data and Analytics governance framework and working patiently to address dozens of concerns among those impacted.
