About me – Debby's

I love working at the intersection of data science and social impact, transforming complex datasets into actionable insights that drive positive change. From developing RAG chatbots for veterans to analyzing National Day Rally speeches, my work aims to bridges the gap between advanced analytics and real-world applications.

What drives me? Building solutions that matter. Whether it’s creating sign language recognition models, predicting stock market trends, or developing volunteer management systems, I believe in using data and technology to solve meaningful challenges.

My journey from communication research to data science has given me a unique perspective on how to tell compelling stories with data. When I’m not coding or analyzing datasets, you’ll find me tinkering with my next side project.

My career has been a deliberate evolution. I spent the first half mastering the “Why” (Research & Strategy), and the second half mastering the “How” (Data Engineering & Architecture). This dual background allows me to build technical systems that don’t just run efficiently but directly answer the business question.

I now build the engines of automated innovation. This era is defined by transforming manual workflows into secure, government-grade systems and engineering the infrastructure that turns raw data into reliable assets.

Managing $2M+ research projects and leading the impact evaluation for Singapore’s largest social service fund ($580M). This was where I learned how to manage stakeholders, define business value, and tell stories with data.
