Hi! I’m Amie and I’ve started WL Report Help because I love taking the messiest of messes and smoothing them out into something that’s both helpful and beautiful.
I think it’s probably fair to say that we’ve all learned a lot about ourselves, our lives and our jobs over the last couple of years. When something big happens it always makes me stop and think about my place in the world and the pandemic was a pretty big happening for us all.
While life was paused and I dug up my entire garden, an image of five year old me coated in mud wandered in for a visit.
Five year old me was quite into mud and digging and I got to thinking about where that girl had wandered off to. She had dreams of freedom, hard work and helping people. She also had dreams of being a backing singer in a gold dress, so I didn’t pay her too much attention at the time and got on with the new turf.
Every now and again, the kid came back to visit me and I would almost see her roll her eyes as I followed the same routines every day of the week, every week of the month and every month of the year. This wasn’t the freedom that I’d had in mind back then and I came to realise that it wasn’t really the freedom that I’d had in mind as an adult.
This was why I decided that I wanted to start my own business, embracing my inner adventurer as well as my inner data nerd. To me, there’s nothing more exciting than the prospect of exploring new sets of data and coming up with ways to slice and dice it creatively, to make reports that help people to make the right decisions in their businesses.
If cells and rows remind you of prison instead of spreadsheets, let me help to set you and your data free.
And just in case you want to know what else I’ve done to placate five year old me across the years, I regularly go trotting out across fields and through forests to get my mud fix. I have even placated the backing singer in the gold dress by playing drums in a band and singing some harmonies. Five year old me would be pretty pleased with me, by all accounts.
