My Work Experience

Where I've interned and worked during my career.

NewDay | May 2019 - Nov 2020

Data Scientist

NewDay is a financial services company with a range of own-brand and co- brand partnership credit card products. My role was to help the company realise its commitment to using advanced machine learning models for credit risk, using gradient boosting machine models instead of the “traditional” logistic regression. We have been able to demonstrate considerable uplift using these new models, while meeting stringent regulatory requirements, and these models have now been deployed into a production environment.

First Rank Publishing | Sep 1996 - Dec 2002

Book Publishing Editor/Company Partner

I established this publishing business in recognition of a business opportunity to ‘package’ niche books for publishers to distribute. This business venture represented a culmination of my previous experiences in publishing and enabled me to fully develop and build upon existing relationships in the industry. The scope of this work involved: > Identifying the market need for niche books and sourcing suitable authors and experts in their field to write a book in response to this need. Typically managing the publication of 25 books per annum which were sold internationally. > Handling all aspects of ‘finishing’ books including copyediting, cover design, typesetting and organising printing and binding. > Liaising with authors, publishers, suppliers and printers on a regular basis, achieving strong working relationships and establishing an excellent industry reputation. > Managing all aspects of the day to day running of the business to ensure its profitability, namely overseeing marketing, relationships, business administration and finances.
