Data Scientist

At IBM, I designed real-world solutions and developed ML models from the ground up on exciting projects at the intersection of business and tech.
Under the guidance of Dr. Mark Freeman, I developed a novel algorithmic method in Python for business-to-business bid price optimization, and successfully deployed it as a microservice for a large telecommunications company.
I also worked with Watson Health to develop an NLP solution to automate pre-surgical authorization. My contributions included building a rules engine in Python and implementing algorithms to extract natural language features from patient clinical data.

Teaching Assistant

I was awarded the Citation for Achievement in College Leadership in recognition of outstanding undergraduate teaching and research commitment. I led workshops, recitations and labs for groups of 15-20 students for the following courses across the Physics, Electrical & Computer Engineering and Math departments:

• ECE 231: Applied Electromagnetics
• ECE 111: Circuit Analysis; ECE 112: Digital Logic
• MTH 161: Calculus I; MTH 162: Calculus II
• PHY 113: Mechanics; PHY 122: Electromagnetism
• AST 105, AST 106: Introductory Astronomy

Research Fellow

I was awarded a research fellowship by Xerox to conduct research under the guidance of Prof. Zhiyao Duan in the Audio Information Research Lab during the summer of 2016. The primary purpose of my research was to design a computational system that could follow live musical performances and display pre-encoded lyrics in real-time.
