The Data School Coaches

Bethany Fox -​ Head Coach, Sydney

Bethany has always had an interest in data analytics, which was intensified whilst studying for her MSc in Applicable Mathematics. During her time at university, she began to understand the need for being able to make the complicated, uncomplicated.

After playing around with Tableau for data visualisation, she was impressed with how intuitive and creative it was. She soon realised that joining The Data School was the only option for her!

Bethany has been an active consultant for The Information Lab in the UK for the past 6 years working with clients to find insights in the client’s data. Her clients were all sad to see her leave the UK and head off to Australia to take up the Coach role in the Sydney Data School.

In her spare time, she loves dancing, playing the piano, and exploring all things new in Sydney and around Oz.
