From zero to data science hero in 1 week

With the amount of data doubling every year and more & more of it being made public, there’s no excuse not to start exploring!

This November we are excited to welcome our speaker Fiona Milne. In her seminar Fiona will tell us about her experiences with public databases. She will walk through how her team built a parking aid within a week using City of Melbourne’s open data portal, BigRQuery and Leaflet - explaining the lessons learned along the way.

Fiona is a data scientist at Eliiza, a ML/AI consulting company. After years spent as an analyst in the tech industry, she decided to put her maths degree to good use and make the hop to data science. She helps to organise the Melbourne chapter of the Women in Machine Learning and Data Science meetup. She is slowly working her way through her Masters in Astrophysics at USQ in her spare time.

This month our event will be hosted by Nous, pizza and drinks will be provided for the evening. Please arrive after 5:30pm for a 6:00 start.

We can't wait to see everyone for this fantastic seminar!
