Work History
Pathway Intern
NASA Goddard
06.2023 - 02.2025
- Implemented a Temporal Convolution Network for Anomaly Detection used in multivariate telemetry data of Mars Sample Return / Capture, Containment, and Retrieval System (CCRS). The model exceeded expectations by achieving an average F1-score of 90%
- Implemented a custom Two Stage Fire Detection model used on satellite imagery. The model has near Real-Time Inference and achieves Inferences of less than 1 second on images with 4000 x 700 resolution. We used a custom lost function to reduce false positive rate.
Competitive Intelligence Chat Bot
Florida Atlantic University
11.2023 - 02.2024
- Using Python to ingest market analysis reports and earnings transcripts on utility companies while using GPT -4 turbo the user and gain insights into the performance of any utility company
- Implemented dynamic chunking strategy and used elastic.co to store vector database in the cloud and leveraged metadata for Retrieval Augmented Generation and drastically reduce hallucination rate.
Data Science Intern
HCL technologies
09.2021 - 12.2021
- Built a streamlit app that allows users to input links to YouTube videos, and the output would apply object detection computer vision to the video, which classified up to 80 objects
- Built a YOLOX-based computer vision model to detect whether vehicle drivers wear seatbelts
- Using roboflow for annotation, the model achieved an mAP of 83
- The model was later pitched to Sacramento to install traffic cameras
Genetic Predictor
Florida Atlantic University
01.2020 - 12.2020
- Created a Multinomial Logistic Regression Model that analyses genetic data to classify an individual's ancestry
- Use PCA for dimension reduction and applied ridge regression for regularization.
- Achieved F1-score of 93
