Projects
For my Google Data Analysis Certificate Capstone project, I leveraged a publicly available Fitbit dataset on Kaggle to conduct a case study. This analysis explored potential marketing strategies for the company Bellabeat. The course provided both the data and a pre-defined scenario. Completing the capstone project was optional, but it allowed me to apply the six stages of data analysis: Ask, Prepare, Process, Analyze, Share, and Act. While I used Python for this project, the Google Data Analysis curriculum traditionally utilises R for the same analysis.
Objective: The project aimed to identify factors influencing energy demand over time. This would allow AusEnergy to make data-driven decisions for energy production planning.
Analysis Approach:
Data Transformation: I used spreadsheet software to transform the raw CSV data into tables and charts that visualised energy demand patterns.
Data Exploration: Conditional formatting was used to highlight periods of high and low energy usage and prices.
Market Research: I conducted online research to understand price deflation trends in Australia during the examined period. This research informed the interpretation of my findings.
Data Visualization: I presented my analysis using scatter plots and line graphs to showcase the relationships between factors and energy demand.
Key Findings:
My analysis revealed how holidays and weather conditions significantly impact energy demand.
The project also identified the potential benefits of implementing a relational database and a data visualisation tool like Tableau for AusEnergy's data management and analysis.
Deliverables:
I created a PowerPoint presentation that explained the data analysis life cycle and presented my findings.
The presentation also explored the impact of holidays and weather on energy demand.
Business Development Opportunity:
By leveraging my experience as a Sales Manager, I approached this project from a dual perspective: data analyst and business development manager. This allowed me to not only deliver valuable insights but also identify potential solutions that could benefit AusEnergy as a long-term client.
Background: DentalPharma, a pharmaceutical company, wanted a way to easily track the progress of their projects. Our goal was to design a customized dashboard that provided clear insights for decision-making.
Scenario: As a junior data analyst, I was tasked with creating a data visualisation dashboard using Tableau to meet DentalPharma's needs. This dashboard would allow managers to efficiently monitor the progress of ongoing projects across different levels.
Analysis Approach:
Background: The Parks and Open Spaces team at the Borough of Camden is undertaking several projects related to public tree data:
Open Data Initiative: Providing a downloadable public dataset of all trees in the borough.
Tree Walks Brochures: Creating guided walk brochures featuring interesting trees in specific parks.
Environment Report: A webpage showcasing the overall carbon and pollution benefits of Camden's trees, including tree planting/removal statistics and their net impact.
