Los Angeles, California (Southern), US

Planned roadmap items and designed specs for all major machine learning projects for the Places product including: entity resolution, spam detection and detecting business closing. Individually responsible for building machine learning models for the above projects and designing measurement pipelines for evaluation of production performance. Led team of 6.

Los Angeles, California (Southern), US

Assessed quality of large dataset of global places summarized from a variety of partner and web sources. Proactively addressed solutions for improving quality and consistency of our data. Specified where efforts could be made for standardization of key fields and where incorporation of new data sources through crawl could benefit quality. Also worked to.

Simulated and designed energetically optimal gaits for MIT Cheetah. Used principles from biomechanics and the methods used by animals to study how a running robotic quadruped could most efficiently run. Built a model and simulation of the robot. Utilized shooting and collocation methods to perform trajectory optimization to find most efficient motions.

US

Created a database of key parameters in design and testing of past control and power umbilicals-Analyzed database for areas to standardize in future umbilical designs.

Explored ocean wave dynamic instabilities and the resulting probability of rogue waves. Developed a MATLAB simulation of rogue wave occurrences.

Palo Alto, California, US

Designed and implemented an apparatus and controls for a prototype lithography platform. Built or specified fabrication of parts for optic and microfluidic subsystems

Chicago, IL, US

Analyzed data and developed graph/charts to depict progress of planned implementation versus actual bytracking and researching existing services projects based on customer impact and overall cost. Created a matrix of past projects by developing analysis of projects reviewed by type, frequency, customer, etc.
