As a senior member of the Data Science team I am responsible for building, validating and implementing statistical models that help meet business requirements. Some of these statistical models serve in real time through restful APIs while others are OLAP based business intelligence tools. These implementations require cross functional team work for operational success. • Built and implemented attribution model for assessing media ROI, contact rate models and lead scoring models to assist outbound sales calls, bidding models for leads purchases and monetization, and persistency models for predicting customer life time value, and evaluated their performance through A/B testing and divisional KPIs.• Used SQL, R, Python, Docker, Sagemaker, Lambda, S3, EC2, Restful API, SourceTree, Bitbucket.• Led projects in designing, implementing and evaluating supervised and unsupervised learning classifiers like the linear and logistic regression, CoxPH Survival, MARS, XGBoost, Trees, K-means, SVM and neural networks.• Architected and deployed real time prediction models in AWS and SQL server.

I collected and analyzed energy use data to identify opportunities for reducing energy cost and carbon footprint while contributing to environmental sustainability. Completed energy efficiency retrofit, energy procurement, energy taxation, on-site energy generation and optimizing building energy management systems projects in this role.

My brother and I, with help from a couple of friends, launched this website in the aftermath of the earthquake in Nepal in April 2015. The money we raised was used to rebuild a school in Nagarkot, Bhaktapur that was destroyed by the earthquake. www.helpnepalearthquakevictims.social
