Hello There!

As a soon-to-be graduate with a Bachelor's in Computer Science from Rutgers University, I have cultivated a robust foundation in data science and machine learning. My experiences range from developing predictive models that enhanced claims processing efficiency by 32% during my tenure as a Machine Learning Engineer at MetLife, to deploying deep learning models achieving a 92% accuracy rate in patient outcome predictions at Syneos Health. Proficient in Python, R, SQL, and cloud platforms like AWS, I have a proven track record of translating complex data into actionable insights. I am passionate about leveraging data-driven solutions to tackle real-world challenges and am eager to contribute my skills to innovative projects in the data science and machine learning domains.​

Currently, I am looking for Full time positions beginning from May 2025
