Before joining The Data School, Kib spent 18 years as a personal trainer and business owner, helping clients improve their health and wellbeing through personalised fitness programs. Alongside her passion for fitness, she has always had a curious, data-driven side, one that inspired her to explore how data could be used to uncover insights, guide decisions, and tell meaningful stories. This curiosity ultimately led her to pursue a new career in data analytics.
To prepare for this transition, Kib completed the IBM Data Analyst Certificate, developing skills in SQL, Python, and IBM Cognos. She continued to build her technical knowledge before discovering Tableau during The Data School application process, an experience that confirmed her enthusiasm for both the analytical and creative sides of data visualisation.
She is excited to combine her analytical mindset with the strong communication and problem-solving skills gained from years of client-facing experience. During her time at The Data School, she looks forward to further developing her technical and consulting skills and applying them to real-world projects that deliver meaningful insights.
Outside of work, you’ll often find Kib in the gym building strength, practising aerial rope skills, or singing with her pop choir. She also enjoys quieter hobbies like crochetting, usually with her cat curled up by her side.
