Data | Python | NLP

I am a former physicist turned Data scientist with machine learning experience in Python and R. After completing my Master of Science degree in physics at Illinois Institute of Technology I have decided to pivot into Data Science. I am excited to leverage the skills I employed in academia; namely problem-solving, research, mathematical modeling, and data visualization to produce comprehensive and illuminating reports on big data. In my spare time I like to tinker with hardware, read obscure fiction (The Once and Future King, Phantastes, Lilith), and watch wildlife footage.

Estimating Atomization Energy

Machine Learning | Python

How well can a Machine Learning model match with predictions made by physical chemistry?

Reddit Classification

Web Scraping | NLP | Machine Learning

The Legend of Zelda and God of War are two of the most successful, and diametrically opposite, video game franchises of all time. In this project, I aim to train a model that can tell them apart using posts from Reddit.
