As an undergraduate student at Purdue University, I have directed my technical skills toward interdisciplinary research developing machine learning models to discover hidden patterns in complex data sets and harnessing them for actionable solutions. Through application-based machine learning, my work has aimed to address challenges in fields spanning disaster relief, public safety, healthcare, and national security.
Check out some of the projects I've been working on!
