Career
Professional
Feb 2022 - Present
Data Scientist | Meta
I recently started a new role as a Data Scientist at Meta.
Jan 2019 - Feb 2022
Data Scientist | IBM
I was a Data Scientist at IBM where my work involves understanding the client experience and factors that drive their satisfaction. I analyze data such as NPS surveys, clickstreams, revenue data, and many other types of data. As far as data science methodologies, I use casual inference methods, machine learning, a bit of Natural Language Processing every now and then, and statistical techniques (regression and Bayesian techniques). I primarily use Python and occasionally R. Other tools that I frequently use are SQL and Tableau.
May 2017 - Sept 2018
Data Scientist | QxBranch
QxBranch is a quantum computing start-up that also offers analytics consulting services. It was founded in 2014 and later acquired by Rigetti Computing. I interned for QxBranch in the summer of 2017 and subsequently worked for them part-time while I was in my Master's in Statistics at Columbia. There, I consulted for two multinational banks, each with AUM of half a trillion dollars. One project involved using machine learning to predict the presence of trading algorithms used in the stock market and another involved modeling customer transaction behavior. These projects were completed in Python
Sep 2016 - Jan 2019
Consultant | Multiple Start-Ups
While in my Master's programs, I consulted for two different start-ups. One start-up specializes in Healthcare analytics and another specializes in cyberinsurance. For both of these start-ups, I performed data cleaning and processing, descriptive analysis, and predictive modeling.
