I lead complex technical programs with a focus on clear communication, smooth execution, and driving real adoption across teams and systems.
My final project for my master's program features next-day shareprice prediction for Dow Jones Industrial Average stocks using a machine learning regression model with a Random Forest algorithm. It also calculates stock data from Alphavantage's API for a company's intrinsic shareprice value.
I developed the "Operation Predator" app for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement on iOS and Android, available in the Apple App Store and Google Play from 2013 to 2019. The app was the first in federal law enforcement to combat child exploitation by crowdsourcing the ability to identify and locate child predator fugitives with warrants for their arrest. The app contributed to 12 arrests.
Adept at applying strategic engineering principles to solve complex business challenges, and translating technical concepts for diverse audiences.
