PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
Phoresa Co-Founder & Scientist July 2016–Aug 2017
• Developed medical device and statistical algorithm to expedite patient diagnosis and care
• Generated Bayesian economic model to identify optimal customer sub-segments based on 50+ interviews with medical directors, physicians, nurses and other relevant stakeholders
• Raised $500k in private financing commitments and awarded $225k Small Business grant (SBIR)
University of Washington Graduate Research Associate Sept 2011–Aug 2016
• Created method to accurately and conveniently classify patient disease status using experimental design and quantitative image analysis on 100+ GB of data
• Produced work results leading to 8 peer-reviewed publications and 2 US patent applications
• Wrote research grant based on thesis project that received $2M+ in funding over 4 years
DATA SCIENCE PROJECTS
Machine Learning to Predict Fantasy Football Scores
• Created a machine learning pipeline with 30% greater draft ranking accuracy compared to community consensus using web scraping, feature engineering, and ensemble modeling
• The model can be leveraged to optimize decision-making for creating and managing teams
Classifying Trip Distance for Bike Ride Share
• Utilized public datasets to predict the trip distance for Divvy ride shares using LightGBM
• Uses feature engineering and model selection to minimize computation and maintain accuracy
Time Series Forecasting with ARIMA and LSTM Neural Networks
• Compared ARIMA and LSTM Neural Network algorithms for 7 different time series
• Methods and algorithms would be useful in predicting churn, user-volume, and other metrics
