After completing a degree in biomedical science, I developed a burning passion to do anything except a career in biosciences. The areas I did enjoy whilst studying did happen to be in the realm of data analytics. Thus, I took this faint notion to a Google job search and The Data School cropped up. My career in data started in 2019, and in three short years, I mastered both Tableau and Alteryx, thanks to the expert training at The Data School and the fantastic opportunities to ply my trade across different industries.
Never in my wildest dreams did I think this job opportunity would lead to some of the experiences I have been afforded. Whether it is working on-site with a Premier League football team, or travelling to Las Vegas for two consecutive years to attend the Tableau and Alteryx conferences respectively - it has been a fantastic ride.
In 2022, an opportunity to become an account manager came up. I felt it suited my skillset and was keen to give it a try. I have very much enjoyed the opportunity to go from using Tableau and Alteryx ‘on the ground’ in companies to supporting companies with the implementation of the softwares. My technical experience serves me well in my current position and I will continue leveraging this to support my clients with their license purchases and implementations.
