Level Up Your Data Science
Know you want to take the next step in your Data Journey, but don’t exactly know where to start? I will help give you a deep understanding of where you are, where you want to be and how to bridge the gap between the two.
You will get insight into the world of data science and how you fit in. You’ll also have an understanding of the type of talent and tooling will help you reach your goals effectively and what to look for in each, coming from someone with deep experience in the Data Science industry.
Custom Machine Learning Model
Do you have a singular burning question you are looking to solve and just need someone to create a Machine Learning model that will give you the solution you’ve been looking for? I will develop a custom Machine Learning model that can be used in your existing systems.
Contact me to see if your question is best answered with Machine Learning or possibly Data Analysis.
Hourly Consultations
Starting at $150
In addition to fixed project engagements, I also offer 60-minute consultations for clients seeking more short-term solutions to their data science needs.
Hourly consultations typically focus on helping clients:
- Better understand data science and machine learning fundamentals (including what it can actually do for their business)
- Plan initial stages of data science/ML projects/develop initial prototypes
- Anticipate potential challenges and chart out future directions for projects
- Answer questions they have regarding data science/ML
- Determine the proper data science methodology for their goals (e.g., Is ML really necessary?)

While I take a customized approach in meeting clients wherever they are in their data science needs, my signature ACE approach typically involves three core stages in driving successful project outcomes.
Assess
Understanding where you are at as a business and what your current goals are (both high level and project-specific).
Create
Develop models and analyses that will efficiently solve the problems of the business.
Execute
Produce models and reports that the client can take action on.
Once we determine the pricing and scope for our project together, I split my payment into 3 payments. The first payment will be 30% of the total at the start of the project. Then 30% once we schedule the meeting to review the first draft of the final deliverable. Then the remaining 40% is due with the delivery of the final revised deliverable.
Questions are super exciting! You can get in touch via my contact page or you can schedule a free 15 minute consultation to see what ways I can help you.
