## About

```text
At GS1 Canada, I analyzed barcode data across databases using SQL and Databricks. I also developed a Python tool to enhance forecasting of financial and sales data, and further developed a machine learning process for subscriber name matching.

At RLB LLP, I created Power BI reports and dashboards using SQL, and developed a Power Automate process to move online form information into SQL databases. I also designed data pipelines connecting online forms, SQL, and Power BI.

At the University of Padua, I researched 3D vision encoders for my master’s thesis, “Probing diverse 3D encoder representations for scene understanding.” I designed and applied machine learning models with Scikit-learn, PyTorch, and TensorFlow, including neural networks for computer vision and natural language processing.
