Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAaron Schiff is a Principal Consultant and independent economist with 11+ years of professional consulting experience, combining rigorous economic modelling, statistical inference, and machine learning to help government, corporate and non-profit clients make evidence-based decisions. He leads end-to-end data analysis and forecasting projects, specialising in R-based automation, data visualisation, geospatial analysis and impact evaluation. His background spans academia and applied consulting—from lecturing and postdoctoral research to leading projects at Covec and advising Figure.NZ on making data more accessible—giving him a rare blend of theoretical depth and practical delivery. Comfortable with both big and small datasets, he is as fluent building reproducible analytical pipelines as he is in communicating findings to non-technical stakeholders. Colleagues describe him as a collaborative “data tinkerer” who enjoys teaming with other consultants to solve complex policy and business problems.
