In addition to my normal modeling duties, I have one direct report and I am the SAS server administrator for my group.Manger Roles:On boarding process/training employeesCreated end of year goalsHelp employee with project prioritizationApprove time sheetSAS Administrator tasks:Adding new users to access the server and managing their permissionsSetting up default libraries for all usersCreating scheduled process flows based on triggered events or timedManaging our registered production models in the metadata serverWorked with SAS support and our IT to upgrade serverMonitor server activities by creating alerts, e.g. if the work directory's space is lowMaintain relationship with our SAS representative and communicate my modeling team's SAS needs

I provide predictive modeling support to Urban Science's automotive clients. I use R and SAS to develop data processing and modeling scripts. I work with the application development team to embed my models into our software solutions. I also work with the client teams to explain to them the results of my analysis.Models developed: 1. Customer scoring models to predict the probability that a customer will purchase a vehicle. 2. Affinity models. Given that a customer is going to purchase a product, the model predicts which product the customer going to purchase next. 3. In Market Timing models: Used survival analysis to determine when customers will be back in the market for their next new vehicle purchase or repair order. 4. Loyalty modeling: Modeled customer behavior for brand loyalty to determine the characteristics of customers which are most likely to churn. 5. Fraud Modeling: Identified customer purchase/lease/service surveys most likely to be fraudulent for the OEM to audit.The results of my analysis include: 1. Score code to be embedded in our systems 2. R Shiny web application for internal use 3. Excel spreadsheets with embedded statistical models for proof of concept work.
