Bio

I currently work as a research scientist at Victoria University in Melbourne, Australia. My research focuses on the analysis of team-sport performance, typically captured via wearable sensors, using data mining techniques. I’m currently working on creating content for and teaching into our new Graduate Certificate in Data Analytics for Sport Performance which is a formal short-course qualification in data science with a unique sports context. I am passionate about using (and teaching!) R to analyse, visualise and report on data. In my spare time, I love playing tennis, running, walking my miniature dachshund (Dudley) and baking sweet treats. Fun fact: I grew up riding horses and wanted to be an equine vet!
