About

I have a wide range of technical and team leading skills in IT and professional services consulting, with a focus on natural language, data warehousing and data science. I enjoy challenges and creating solutions to solve them with pragmatic use of relevant technology (but I also admire Perl golf). I have experience in the healthcare (acute care) and telecommunications sectors. I have developed a strong set of consulting and communication skills, verbal and written, that have also benefited from my previous work and training in medicine. I have a medium term career goal to broaden my experience in data science with specific focus on predictive analytics and clinical text mining. Specialties: * Solution architecture & design * Technical team leading * Natural language processing * Machine learning and graphical models * ETL development * Data modelling (including dimensional modelling) * Web development * Performance tuning * System administration and database administration * Business analysis
