About this session

If you're looking to get some practice before your data science interview, I can run you through a mock interview and give you feedback on any areas of improvement.

Your mentor

Hi there,

Are you looking for some guidance as you navigate your data science career?

Maybe you’re trying to break into data science, prepare for interviews, figure out what skills to focus on next, or simply understand what it takes to grow in your current role. It can be hard to know if you’re on the right path, especially when everyone’s career journey looks a little different.

I remember feeling the same way when I was starting out over 10 years ago. I often wondered:

* Am I focusing on the right things?
* What do I need to do to get promoted?
* How do I know if I’m making progress?
* Is everyone else figuring this out faster than I am?

I was fortunate to have mentors who helped guide me along the way, and I’m incredibly grateful for their support. At the same time, I often wished I had someone who had followed a similar data science path and could give practical advice based on real experience.

Since then, I’ve worked in a variety of data roles, grown into leadership positions, and helped mentor aspiring and early-career data scientists. Looking back, there are definitely things I wish I had known sooner, and I’d love to help you navigate some of those challenges.

Every mentee is different, so I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether you need help with your resume, interview preparation, career planning, workplace challenges, or building confidence in your skills, we’ll work together to create a plan that fits your goals.

To supplement our sessions, I’ve also built a few AI-powered tools that my mentees can use for things like interview practice and resume feedback. They’re designed to help you continue learning between meetings and get more value from our time together.

At the end of the day, my goal is simple: to be the mentor I wish I had when I was starting my own data science career.

If that sounds helpful, feel free to send me a message and tell me a little about your situation. I’d be happy to chat and see if I’m the right person to help.

Talk to you soon!

~ Jen

I had strong foundations in statistics and causal inference but needed guidance on how to present myself effectively and sharpen the specific skills that industry hiring processes demand. We worked together on a wide range of topics, from Python and SQL practice to machine learning concepts, case study preparation, and refining my CV. What I appreciated most was how structured and adaptable our sessions were. She met me where I was, tailored her advice to the roles I was targeting, and always gave actionable feedback I could apply right away. Thanks to her help, I feel significantly more confident going into interviews and much better prepared across the board. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a mentor who is both knowledgeable and genuinely invested in your success. ”

My resume, social media, and portfolio all needed significant improvements, and after sending out applications for a long time with no responses, I knew I couldn’t keep doing it alone. I wanted to find a mentor in Canada who understood the Canadian market and could help me get unstuck. From the very beginning, my mentor took a structured, thoughtful approach with me. We went through my resume line by line, clarified everything, and made sure my LinkedIn and portfolio were polished. What I really appreciate is also how the improvements also gave me a huge boost to my confidence. The impact has been huge. Within just one week of updating my resume with her help, I received a response from RBC inviting me to the coding stage. And with that extra boost in confidence, I applied to a project that ended up getting me invited to Parliament in Ottawa by Senators. On top of that, I’ve strengthened my business sense and highlighted that clearly in my portfolio. Overall, I’ve already learned so much from her teachings, and every aspect of my data science journey has been taken to another level. I’m very grateful to have her as my mentor and would highly recommend her to anyone serious about growing their career.”
