Terre Haute 01/2023 - 05/2023

Criminal Justice Systems Comparison Search

Conducted an in-depth comparative research project analyzing the effectiveness of risk assessment models used in the United States and selected European countries. Focused on how each system leverages data analytics and algorithmic tools in pretrial risk scoring to inform decisions regarding bail, probation, or rehabilitation. Evaluated key factors such as recidivism prediction accuracy, fairness, and ethical concerns surrounding data bias. The research highlighted best practices and limitations in current risk-based decision-making, and proposed recommendations for improving transparency, equity, and efficiency in criminal justice reform initiatives.

Risk Profile Analysis Using Excel

Created a mock risk profiling system for fictional banking clients, designed to simulate how financial institutions assess potential risk. Assigned weighted risk scores to each client based on key factors such as income level, transaction behavior, and credit history. Used advanced Excel functions, including formulas, pivot tables, and conditional formatting, to automate risk scoring, highlight suspicious patterns, and visually flag high-risk profiles. The project also included basic client segmentation to demonstrate how institutions might tailor monitoring or outreach strategies based on risk categories.

Capstone Research

Successfully completed a capstone research project focused on analyzing national crime data trends, identifying key risk factors associated with firearm-related offenses. Utilized official datasets (e.g., FBI UCR, NCVS) to examine demographic, geographic, and socio-economic variables influencing gun violence. Applied criminological theories and statistical methods to detect correlations and trends. The project concluded with the development of targeted policy recommendations aimed at reducing gun-related crimes through community- based intervention, prevention strategies, and data-driven risk assessment tools. Findings were presented in both written and visual formats to a faculty panel.

Preliminary market analysis

Completed a market analysis for a banking client, focusing on customer segmentation and the risk levels of different financial products. Worked with available client data to find patterns in customer behavior, grouped customers based on their habits and characteristics, and identified which products carried higher levels of risk. The analysis helped the client better understand their customers and make more informed decisions about managing product risks. EDUCATION
