    paper Report for Hortianalytics Project
    I co-led a national data science project called Hortianalytics, which analysed more than a decade of New Zealand’s fruit export data to uncover trade patterns and forecast future trends. The project focused on six major horticultural products including kiwifruit, avocados, apples, grapes, oranges, and strawberries, using data from the UN Comtrade database. I integrated and transformed over 200,000 records using Excel Power Query and Python (Pandas) to ensure clean, reliable data for analysis. I performed statistical inference tests such as t-tests and ANOVA to identify significant differences in export performance across products and countries. Using Power BI, I designed dynamic dashboards for six stakeholder groups such as policymakers, exporters, and trade agencies. These dashboards included visual comparisons of trade volumes, export values, price per kilogram, and trade balance trends from 2013 to 2024. The project also involved forecasting to 2029 using Python-based time series analysis combined with Power BI visualisation to predict future export growth and market share. The findings highlighted opportunities for export diversification and provided insights for policy planning in the horticulture sector. This project demonstrates my ability to manage large datasets, apply statistical and predictive methods, and communicate results through interactive dashboards that support strategic decision-making.

    paper Stroke Risk Analysis
    I developed a full data analytics solution to identify and visualise the key factors influencing stroke risk. The project used a structured data warehouse design, statistical inference, and predictive modelling to provide both analytical and practical insights for healthcare planning. I cleaned and modelled the dataset using Python (Pandas, Scikit-learn) and performed statistical tests including Chi-square, t-tests, and ANOVA to confirm relationships between risk factors such as hypertension, smoking, and glucose levels. A logistic regression model was then built to predict the likelihood of stroke based on demographic, lifestyle, and medical variables. The results were visualised through an interactive multi-page Power BI dashboard that included KPI cards, demographic breakdowns, and feature-importance charts. The dashboard allowed users to quickly identify high-risk groups and understand which factors had the greatest impact on stroke outcomes. This project demonstrates my ability to combine statistical analysis, machine learning, and data visualisation to produce actionable insights that can support healthcare decision-making.
