SKILLS
After 22 years in the TV industry as an succesful entrepreneur and business owner, I decided to explore new professional adventures. Being a business owner takes it’s toll on your time. At the same time I really wanted to narrow down my focus and getting more into the details. So I decided to sell my company and change career to data science. I have always enjoyed structures and programming, and the hunt for information and patterns in the data is just a bonus!
