The DaVinSci Way
Good decisions need more than a plan. They need numbers you can stand behind, and someone who’ll tell you when those numbers don’t say what you were hoping they’d say.
That means:
- Data clarity, so every decision is built on numbers you actually trust, not the least-wrong version of three spreadsheets.
- Early warning on what’s shifting in your business, while it’s still cheap to do something about it.
- Processes clean enough that anyone on your team can rely on them, not just the one person who remembers how the file works.
- Reporting built to survive real scrutiny, whether a board, a funder, or an auditor, and not just to look tidy in a slide.
This is where I come in. I:
- untangle the spreadsheets, systems and half-finished dashboards currently sitting behind your numbers;
- find the gaps, duplication and errors quietly costing you money and credibility;
- build the structure and audit trail that turns your data from a liability into an asset;
- set up reporting that tells you the truth at a glance; and
- provide the ongoing oversight that keeps it that way — not a one-off clean-up that quietly decays in six months.
The result: decisions you don’t have to double-check, and hours back that you’re currently losing to reconciling numbers that don’t match.
Meet Dan
Data & Analytics Consultant | 15+ years turning messy data into decisions people can trust
For eight years I was responsible for the data behind international B2B trade shows and exhibitions, an industry where a single event generates hundreds of thousands of contact records and live registration, sales and campaign figures, all of it needing to be accurate, current, and ready to answer a sponsor’s question in the next ten minutes. On a show floor, there’s nowhere to hide a data error.
That discipline — building clean, trustworthy data systems at volume, under time pressure, with no margin for error — is what I bring to every client now, inside the events world or well beyond it. Across 15+ years spanning marketing analytics, knowledge management, international development and organisational strategy, I’ve audited, rebuilt and handed back data systems to teams who’d quietly stopped trusting their own numbers, and given them reporting they could believe in again.
I’m especially at home in complex, mission-driven settings, such as environmental organisations, international development, and civic tech, where the data is messy, the stakes reach past the balance sheet, and getting it right actually matters. (My background runs from smart-city and environmental trade shows to foundation fundraising and an MA in Conflict Resolution & International Security, so “difficult data with real consequences” is familiar ground.)
What I do:
- Data Audit, Analytics & Governance
- Process Review & Business Intelligence
- Reporting, Dashboards & KPI Systems
- Ongoing Data Strategy & Oversight (retainer)
Under the hood: Python, SQL, Tableau, Power BI and advanced Excel, plus deep Salesforce and HubSpot experience. More on the Services page.

In their words
“His ability to take data and make it business-facing, to make critical and informed decisions, is amazing.” — Steve Blythe, Founder & Group CEO
“He took our jumbled pots of data and turned it into a beautiful, organised, clean master spreadsheet… which resulted in a record attendance for our show.” — Alex Jones, Marketing Director

Let’s talk
Messy data costs you money and sleep. If your reporting doesn’t add up, your team second-guesses every number, or you’re making big decisions on a spreadsheet nobody fully trusts. That’s worth a conversation.
