About Maxfield T.

Maxfield T. is a Data Scientist II - Advanced Analytics Modeler at Sentry. Colleagues describe him as "As a founding director of a research institute and a university wide undergraduate research program, I have taught or engaged more than 500 students in research. Of these students, Max stands out with his shear independence of thought and singular focus on machine learning and artificial intelligence. He has enormous potential to contribute to the field of data science specifically in the use of machine learning. He is willing to taken on very complex programs and works well in a team setting. That is why I recommended him so highly for the Applied Machine Learning Internship at Los Alamos National Laboratory. "Mr. Max Thompson has enormous potential to contribute to the field of data science specifically in the use of machine learning." and "Max was a student in two of my courses - (1) Big Data Analytics and (2) Case Studies in Data Science. He excelled in both courses. He is a team player and has a great personality. Not only is he very knowledgeable in math and statistics but his ability to apply advanced concepts to datasets is a true gift. During the Case Studies course, I gave the students a dataset of networking data. The goal was to explore the data and find an interesting story. I purposely left the request vague since my goal was to get the students to find stories in the data without my influence. Like most of my students, Max was not very familiar with networking data. In addition, he was just learning to use the Splunk intelligence tool which I had introduced them to. However, he was able to use Splunk to tell a very interesting story. He was excited about his work and it showed as he presented his insights to the rest of the class using snapshots and sample data. I was so impressed with his work during the class that I invited him, and two other students, to co-present a paper at an upcoming conference with me. Although he will no longer be taking classes with me, I intend to keep in touch with Max as he grows in his data science career."
