A data consultant with twenty-five years of industry experience gained in London, serving clients on-site and remotely. Over the years, I have worked in several industries, including Food Retail, Telecoms, and Gaming, as well as for several consultancy firms, through which I was exposed to a diverse range of analytical approaches and systems. I am equally comfortable liaising with stakeholders to understand their business needs and propose analytical solutions and scoping, developing and embedding those solutions within an organization. My areas of analytical expertise include the development of various segmentations—like Value, Behavior, and Headroom—propensity models, and ad hoc analytical solutions. In the second half of my career, I have developed a keen interest in identifying and developing analytical talent through on-the-job training and, more recently, through lecturing at the Deree – The American College of Greece.
