Skills

Projects

Statsmaster

I love Taskmaster. If not for the pure comedy, then for how it lends itself to data analysis. Plotting contestants' scores point-by-point over a series in a way that can be replicated with minimal repetition, using formulae to retrieve data from different series sheets automatically.

Visualising data on AirBnB bookings to aid a theoretical client looking to buy a property in Seattle, WA. The collected data shows the number of properties by room number, price of bookings by different criteria and expected revenue throughout the year.

UK Road Accident Dashboard

An interactive dashboard visualising road accidents by conditions and severity in the UK. Users can select the year to review and compare with a previous year as KPIs update to show percentage differences, with conditional formatting depending on whether this increases or decreases.
