XAVIER ROSÉE

Xavier Rosée is the founder of Off The Ground, a fully-remote Mobile Product Consultancy. This is a space where he talks about his journey to Data Science... Hi, I'm Xavier Rosée. Up to 2020 I was a Mobile Marketing Professional with a strong focus in branding and strategy. Over the course of my career at companies like Microsoft, Gameloft, Substantial Games, Fifth Journey and my own boutique consultancy, I've witnessed the evolution of marketing into a two-pronged role: you're either a data-literate creative individual, or a strong analyst with an eye for creative work... After a couple of years learning Data Analysis and Python by myself to craft a Product Design offering for my consultancy, my business and livelihood were hit by COVID-19. Taking this opportunity to reflect on the industry, the marketing role and my future, I've decided to pivot my career toward a data-first Product role.
