I’ve always been someone who loves connecting dot, whether it’s numbers, people, or patterns in data.My journey started with business and finance, moved into analytics during my Master’s at Deakin, and eventually led me to Australia’s banking world. Today, I work as a Data Engineer at National Australia Bank, where I help power personalised communication for millions of customers.Most of my day goes into Databricks, ADA, SQL, and large datasets, turning raw information into meaningful customer decisions.Before banking, I worked with Australian taxation and Self-Managed Super Funds, which gave me a strong foundation in finance, compliance, and real-world problem solving.I’m passionate about financial analytics, time-series forecasting, machine learning, and anything that involves understanding how data shapes decisions. I’ve also spoken at workshops and events, sharing my experiences with students and professionals.At the core, I am someone who enjoys learning, building, and creating things that make processes smarter and customer experiences better.
