About George Harris

I'm a Data Scientist with a passion for extracting meaningful insights from complex data sets and developing ML models that drive real-world impact. With dual Masters degrees in Data Science and Astrophysics, I thrive in the space where analytical rigour meets practical application. Nothing excites me more than those breakthrough moments when incremental model improvements reveal previously hidden patterns or when stakeholders experience those satisfying "wow" moments of discovery. Over the past 3+ years across research science and data science roles, I've dedicated myself to bridging the communication gap between business stakeholders and technical teams. At Anmut Consulting, I've specialised in helping organisations understand the true value of their data assets and build stronger data cultures. My background combines the precision of astrophysics with the practical problem-solving skills needed to transform business challenges into data-driven solutions. • Led groundbreaking research valuing a major UK property organisation's data assets at £700 million, revolutionising how they perceive and manage their information resources • Developed an innovative methodology to value FTSE companies' data assets based on stock price analysis • Successfully translated complex data concepts into actionable insights for C-suite executives, improving organisational data culture and decision-making EXPERTISE: Python, Machine Learning, Scikit-learn, SQL, Power BI, Excel, Data VisualiSation, Predictive Modelling, Statistical Analysis, Data Valuation, Git, Cross-functional Collaboration, Research Design When not analySing data, you'll find me coaching youth fencers at Kingston Fencing Club or immersed in a good book – currently making my way through John le Carré's George Smiley series.
