What do you do? Statistician currently working in Public Health

How long have you been doing it? Almost 4.5 years.

How did you get into it? Started out studying Physics and Geology at uni and did 6 weeks of data analysis which I loved so switched to a Maths degree majoring in Stats. After completing Honours I was lucky enough to get a job at the same university where I studied.

Do you enjoy it? Right now I'm loving it again after having a tough return from mat leave last year and dealing with PND. I enjoy exploring and analysing data, but don't like others interpreting it to suit their own agendas. Numbers speak for themselves.

If you could do any job in the world would you still do it? I don't know. Sometimes I think I'd be perfectly happy as a SAHM.
