I’m Mark. And I have 10 years’ experience with football data, five years of software development, and three of data engineering.

+

I’m a Python guy, but really a ‘build something to make things better’ guy.

This site was fun to make. Check out the ‘Projects’ page for other things I’ve worked on, or just have fun watching the tracking data animation.
