Amanda is solving data problems and reshaping the data and AI strategy at Transurban daily.
What are some highlights of what you’ve been working on lately?
My role involves developing various Data Management Capabilities, including Data & AI Governance, Data Architecture and Modelling, Data & AI Literacy, and Data Risk and Remediation. [I support] the business to adopt AI safely, build out an AI Portfolio across Transurban and reshape the Data and AI Strategy. The team and I have been building out strategies to support Data Quality, which is an exciting demonstration of how much we have uplifted our Data Maturity over the last couple of years!
If you could give one piece of advice to your younger self, what would it be?
You will be okay, you always land on your feet - so be courageous, take every opportunity that comes your way (even if you think you can’t) and most importantly, don’t sweat the small stuff.
What inspires you most in your work?
People! The great people I work with, my amazing team and the part I play in keeping people’s data safe. I get to do the things I love at a fast pace, in a beautiful office environment with fantastic people... What more can I say?
Most importantly, what do you prefer - tea or coffee?
I can honestly say that I am addicted to caffeine in both forms (I can’t function without it!) …But I drink more coffee than tea.
