I'm a mathematics PhD who has accumulated years of experience in technical problem solving, statistical analysis, machine learning, and communicating complex results and ideas to various audiences ranging from freshman undergraduates to colleagues with differing technical backgrounds.- Cross-functional collaborator with peers of diverse backgrounds resulting in 2 academic papers and 2 finalist project entries in data science competitions.- Versatile researcher with PhD dissertation in probability, statistics, and stochastic processes and 4 side projects in data science utilizing Python, R, natural language processing, signal processing, and machine learning.- Expert communicator with advanced interpersonal and presentation skills and experience teaching Python and MATLAB programming courses in-person and remotely, as demonstrated by a 94% pass rate in the coding project assessments among over 700 students.In my free time, I enjoy playing saxophone and guitar, reading, hiking, and programming (recently started a project in Motorola 68K assembly!).
