Corporate experience

Data Analyst at Jacobs
Sydney, Australia (July 2017 – July 2018)

• Processed data for traffic management - traffic counts, traffic flow at different times at various intersections in Sydney
• Generated demographic data for different sectors of NSW and presented these results visually
• Applied Exploratory Data Analysis by tidying the data, summarising and visualisation
• Applied Predictive Analytics as a part of development of Machine Learning algorithms
• Also used R programming for data visualisation for large datasets

Transport Modeller at TMA
Sydney, Australia (May 2017 – July 2017)

• Applied basic traffic modelling tools such as Sidra, Vissim and Linsig in conjunction with Excel and SQL to process and evaluate large volumes of traffic data for several construction and transport projects for NSW. Generated reports and recommendations based on traffic simulation/flow at different times of the day on the Sydney road network.
• Processed the travel demand data for use in Sidra Intersection model to evaluate scenarios involving lane configuration changes, signal timing changes, traffic flow changes and incorporated demand data for the Options Assessment Report for Pyrmont Traffic Improvement project in Sydney

Post Doctoral Researcher, Ghent University
Belgium (July 2009 – July 2011)

• Managing Team members in creating reports, research publications for conferences and journals
• Used Data Analytics using SQL and Matlab for Data visualisation
• Taught Data Exploration, manipulation and visualisation using R and Python to Undergraduate students in Belgium
• Organised research to test the sustainability of food consumption, land use and water use to evaluate carbon footprint and water footprint analysis
