Profile

I am an independent consulting statistician & data scientist based in Bath, England with a global client base. I have over 30 years’ experience of using statistical thinking and methods to solve business challenges around the world. To date, I have worked with over 150 clients from many industries in the public and private sector. The breadth of my experience is highly unusual in any profession but particularly for a statistician, who tend to specialise in particular fields. I have worked with teams in research, purchasing, finance, HR, trading desks, sales, marketing, product design, IT, recruitment, engineering, manufacturing, quality & scientific fields. My background and experience means that I am especially strong at communicating complex statistical ideas in a language that can be easily understood by non-statisticians thus making it easier for you to take actions on the outputs of my work. In most cases, I am happy to work on a fixed price basis. This means that you will know in advance how much my services will cost before you engage me. For more details, please contact me using the information given on the Contact Details tab where you will also find my website and LinkedIn profile.
