My name is William Chan. I'm an Insights and Analytics Nerd 🤓 from Montreal, Canada 🇨🇦 - the most multicultural Canadian city & best food all around. I absolutely love data and joined the field in 2013 right before the mainstream boom. I've been dabbling in the analytics space ever since with a keen interest in Customer Analytics and Sports Analytics. Most of my projects and articles on Medium will be around those topics.

I spent 10 years involved in sports before pivoting to business 📊. I'm grateful for the incredible experiences I've had with FIFA ⚽️, Hockey Canada 🏒, IIHF, and various amateur soccer associations in Canada. Following my early sports career, I graduated with a Bachelor's in Business Technology and Data from Concordia University. I landed a role at Air Canada ✈️ where I built out their analytics program in their Global Sales department. Seeing the impact data could have on a business's performance I decided to dive deeper by completing my Master of Management Analytics at Queen's University. I also joined Merck Canada 💊 with a mandate to build out their analytics function.

I love travelling and experiencing different cultures (and their food). During my time at Air Canada, I was fortunate enough to visit many countries including: Japan 🇯🇵, Australia 🇦🇺, Singapore 🇸🇬, France 🇫🇷, UK 🇬🇧, Spain 🇪🇸, Germany 🇩🇪, and Belgium 🇧🇪. I speak English, French, and Cantonese 🇭🇰 (I was born in Hong Kong) and eager to learn Italian 🇮🇹.

When I'm not on my computer, I'm either travelling 🏝, playing video games 🕹, or golfing ⛳️!

I'd love to connect if you share an interest in any of the topics I mentioned.

All the best.

Will
