Matthew O'Hara

I’m in my final year of a B.Sc. at Acadia, majoring in Computer Science. I have a previous degree and a career in life sciences research and I enjoyed incorporating automation and algorithmic power into the data collection and analysis routine. I enjoy programming and data analytics, and in particular using AI and machine learning to solve problems and to uncover the hidden value in datasets generated by companies and researchers. I also enjoy playing guitar, cooking, rowing, snorkeling and diving.

“In this role I’ve gained experience managing the data architecture and software development for this project. I’ve helped to create a data inventory, gathered and analyzed project requirements, designed and tested prototypes and worked in an iterative and incremental development cycle. At the completion of the project I hope Katal will have a useful tool that supports their data-driven decision making, and helps to communicate to stakeholders the specific benefits of their products.”
