Data, Cricket, and Diapers: My Life’s Balancing Act
Hello! I’m Tony Abraham. By day, I lead the data analytics team at a prestigious FTSE 100 investment and wealth management company. My job? Deciphering data to drive strategic decisions and risk mitigation. By night, I used to immerse myself in cricket, analysing every run, wicket, and game. Now, I navigate the complexities of ensuring my two boys drift off to sleep, while occasionally negotiating with my wife about diaper duties.
Launching this blog is my venture into sharing the intricate dance between data science and internal audit. Think of it as searching for the keys to the room but finding a treasure chest of insights instead. For someone more comfortable with numbers than social media, this is my leap of faith, akin to facing a fast bowler without a helmet!
