Hi, I'm Peter!
A versatile data professional experienced in
building end-to-end analytics solutions and scalable
data infrastructure to support research, product and
business teams. I value modular, cost-effective
tooling (primarily open source), elegant system
design, and the impact that high quality data
engineering can have not only on business decisions
but also on company culture as a whole.
My semi-professional endeavours include keeping up
with the latest neuroscience and sports science
topics, consulting on gaming research, and coaching
strength & conditioning at my local barbell club.
In my recreational time, I usually work on one of my
dozen creative projects, play sports or board-games
with friends, perfect my granola recipe, or simply
take my 35mm point & shoot around the world.
