WORK EXPERIENCE

New Asian Leaders, Washington, DC Sep. 2016 – May 2017

Data Analysis Intern

Managed recent 10 years’ consumption record, including more than 5,000,000 data points, from American Community Survey database and analyzed different sections’ market share within each group using SPSS and Tableau

Modelled relationship between total consumption and main sections, found the key difference that non-Asian group spent income on insurance around 3 times higher than Asian group, leading to team’s new concern on improving the service for clients

Designed the website using Wordpress; wrote and published news, press release and blogs

The George Washington University, Washington, DC Sep. 2016 – Dec. 2016

Teaching Assistant, Department of Statistics

Explained the academic theories and contents for students who have difficulties in understanding

Examined carefully each student’s R coding, graded students’ homework and made recommendation or amendment based on their performance

Integrated common mistakes in students’ homework and suggested to professor for next lecture’s review

RESEARCH & PROJECTS

The George Washington University, Washington, DC Sep. 2016 – Dec. 2016

Primary Researcher, survival analysis, Research Project

Employed Cox proportional hazards model to fit survival time with censored data using both SAS and R, and tested the significance for each proposed factor using different testing approaches

Utilized KM estimator to measure survival probability and NA estimator to calculate cumulative hazard rate, finding patients after treatment have higher survival probability and lower cumulative hazard rate

The George Washington University, Washington, DC Mar. 2016 – May 2016

Primary Researcher, Simulation of Queueing Process, Research Project

Drafted algorithm for required queueing process and implemented designed simulation with SAS

Optimized simulation process, leading to increase more than 60% computation efficiency, improved queueing model, causing to reduce approximately 30% waiting time

Filed the final report as an understandable document and presented main solutions to queueing process for peers

The George Washington University, Washington, DC Feb. 2016 – May 2016

Primary Researcher, Modelling and predicting PM 2.5 of Texas, Research Project

Acquired data on PM 2.5 and possible influential factors, including precipitation, gust wind speed and temperature, from Texas’ official weather database, imputed missing data and integrated these data into MS Excel.

Established generalized linear model (GLM) with R to investigate their relationship, such as multiple linear regression model and logistic regression

refined candidate models using various hypothesis testing methods and make optimization under constraints, leading to more than 80% variance could be explained without model assumptions violated

Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, Suzhou, China Jun. 2014 – Sep. 2014

Primary Researcher, Application of Poisson-Hidden Markov model, Research Intern,

Established a Poisson-Hidden Markov model to capture the hidden influential factors of bank failures in USA from 1988 to 2010

Interpreted the estimated parameters in the model and verified the applicability of the model since observed occurrences matched almost with events happened in the real world

Presented the research results in the International Conference on Statistics and Mathematics 2014, which was highly approved and recognized by professional researchers from diverse countries
