Connor Marshall

You’ll find I’ve spent over a decade navigating the edges of systems, from education and housing to frontline service, not just surviving bureaucracy but understanding its pressure points and helping others through it. What drives me is clarity. I focus on making processes transparent, fair and human-centred, especially for those least equipped to decode them. I use such insights to drive forward my business in digital artistry and creative work with systems.

Along the way, I’ve mastered more than technical skills. I’m fluent in data analysis, systems thinking and digital tools. My real asset lies in pattern recognition: spotting where information fails to flow, where memory collapses, and where meaningful progress depends on someone quietly stitching the whole thing back together.

If you're facing complexity, I don’t just bring tools. I bring comprehension.

In my voluntary and professional roles, I’ve reviewed front-facing public services with respect for both clients and staff. I delivered improvement plans that accounted for time, morale and stakeholder complexity, not just raw data. I’ve developed inferential tools to simulate how decisions affect different populations, and I’ve worked hands-on in community-facing environments where trust and continuity matter and tailored presentation delivery to a range of audiences.

I’m comfortable using SPSS, R, Excel and other tools to surface patterns and insight, and I have strong technical and communication skills. But more importantly, I believe that data work should make things better for someone: more accessible, more just, more transparent. That’s the thread running through all of my work.

I have direct experience navigating and resolving some of the most extreme examples of administrative collapse: graduating after nine years in higher education across two degrees, multiple restructures, and total system failures that left no records, no support and no consistency. I never stopped asking what could be improved. I became the course representative.

I listened. I documented. I worked with staff who were overwhelmed and helped untangle the problems so that others might not go through what I did. I didn’t become bitter. I became useful and kept records of what I could prove would work.
