This blog is a showcase of data science work carried out by me and teams I’ve led … and a bunch of other random stuff besides.

A member of my team contributed by developing the dashboard that accompanies the Annual Financial Report analysis.

The dashboard has two complementary sections: explanatory pages that walk users through the major fiscal trends, and an exploratory views that enables users to interrogate and explore the data themselves.
