What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, collaboration, and innovation in data science.

I am a recent graduate in Data Science and Philosophy from Emory University, where I achieved a GPA of 3.73. My academic journey has equipped me with a strong analytical mindset and the ability to derive insights from complex datasets. I have hands-on experience in financial analysis, Natural Language Processing, and cross-functional collaboration, which I have applied in various internships and projects.

During my time as a Capstone Research Analyst at Balentine Wealth Advisors, I designed and implemented alternative portfolio weighting strategies that improved stock buy/sell signals estimation. I developed Python scripts to visualize model performance and communicated actionable insights to financial advisors. Additionally, my internship at AI Immersion Experience allowed me to lead a team in developing an AI-powered artifact description bias detection system, where I created a comprehensive glossary and annotated over 1300 entries to fine-tune advanced models like BERT and GPT.

My diverse internship experiences, including roles in human resources and consulting, have honed my ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical audiences. I am passionate about leveraging data to drive decision-making and am eager to contribute to innovative projects in the field of data science.
