I occasionally provide pro bono, small-scope, and fast-turnaround consulting for external partners interested in making better use of complex, real-world data—particularly in transportation and adjacent domains. These engagements are intended to foster collaboration, explore practical challenges in data science, and broaden the real-world impact of my technical expertise.
Typical engagements may include:
- A no-cost, 30-minute discovery call to understand your data or analytics challenge
- A lightweight data audit – You provide sample data or API access, and I return insights, visualizations, and recommendations (typically within 2 weeks, or 16 hours)
- Proof-of-concept prototype - a minimal, illustrative demo to visualize early-stage ideas or strategies
- Optional follow-up discussions – to help teams frame next steps, refine use cases, or plan roadmap development
Who might benefit
This service is a good fit for public- and private-sector teams seeking technically informed, low-overhead feedback—without committing to long-term consulting engagements. Example clients include:
- Public agencies exploring how to leverage mobility or infrastructure data
- Transportation/logistics firms rethinking operational questions
- Insurance companies exploring risk, behavior, or vehicle telematics data
- Startups validating a data-driven MVP or looking to prototype live dashboards
- Innovation and R&D teams working on IoT, sensing, or edge/real-time analytics
I am especially interested in early-stage or exploratory projects where strategic thinking and minimal modeling can make a big difference quickly.
