Welcome to my page!
Hi, I'm Greta! Thanks for dropping by...
I'm a multi global award winning tech entrepreneur, Data Scientist, hobby artist and classical pianist - with a love of gardening and the ocean.
In 2019 I was the winner of the Global Techstars Unite to Fight COVID-19 Startup Weekend and in 2021 she won the People's Choice Award in Telstra's International Hackathon.
Following the acquisition of my prior company, I went on to acquire postgraduate degree in Data Science from the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT) and is quoted as "one of the most prolific students" renowned Data Scientist Dr. Seyedali Mirjalili has taught.
My passion for human rights, justice and data has led me to building AI solutions in weather prediction and other climate and urban planning related aspects.

This is a reconstruction of a problematic scatterplot that I found in the media that I had identified as problematic due to a number of best practice visualization techniques. The critique and the code I used to reproduce an improved graph are shown within the details of the portfolio page.
Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympic Games Medal Tally Analysis
This analysis relates to the recent Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympic Games held this year in August (the name honours the original pre covid intended commencement year).
It was interesting to discover on Wikipedia that the official way the IOC deem the winner of the Olympics is by the Gold Medal Tally for the participating nation and that other nation/s also consider the Total Medal Tally as one worthy of noting.

Volunteering
Twofold Aboriginal Corporation
Project Manager and acting Liaison to the Australian National University on behalf of the Twofold Aboriginal Corporation
I was approached by one of the Directors at Twofold in 2018 who asked if I would like to share my expertise with the Corporation and assist with the redesigning of the website - I was thrilled to be asked and following on from that initial project I requested that I could stay on and continue to be able to be a part of the community and share my skills where possible. I continued on for another 12 months and a part of this eventuated into overseeing the Australian National University on-site Internship in Eden NSW whereby I designed and oversaw the students' KPIs and outcomes respective to their business faculties.
Referees
Greta has been one of the most prolific of all of my students at RMIT so far. She's been an active member of our class, providing assistance to other students... articulate in Machine Learning and readily contributes to discussions in the group... Greta has impressed me with her lively intelligence, considerable work ethic and productivity, and her friendliness and readiness to collaborate and assist where she is able.
Dr Seyedali Mirjalili
RMIT University
Highest Regarded AI Data Scientist in the World (2023 Research Magazine)
In my time working with Greta in Twofold Aboriginal Corporation, she demonstrated an impressive ability to analyse complex systems and data and lead teams of diverse professionals. Her great expertise in data analysis, statistics, and programming, as well as an understanding of the inner workings of the system being analysed helped the team to gain insights and the organization to make informed decisions. She's that kind of go-to person when a powerful set of capabilities are required to lead cross-functional teams and drive business success.

I was an investor and board director Lust Have It! when Greta joined as CEO... What impressed me most about Greta in this melee was her steel will, grit, determination and tenacity - absolutely essential characteristics for a start-up CEO and not something that can be taught. She was also whip smart. She could analyse data, read people, navigate challenges, take on feedback and present solutions. And, combined with all that, she is charming, a good manager and generally a great person...
