Ellen Fry

STEM Lecturer Looking For A Change

Summary

I am looking for a change in career, and to offer my research and data analysis skills to a data science industry. I have been working in STEM over 15 years and I am an extremely rapid learner, adept at handling multiple projects and supervising small teams. I have an extensive peer-reviewed publication record, showcasing my ability to analyse and present large datasets in numerous different ways.

Statistical software

I have been using R extensively since my MSc in 2006-2007. 

In 2020 I completed a range of IBM courses in Python and SQL, so I have some practice and knowledge of their use, which I can build on rapidly.
