I'm a Data Scientist with a passion for finding value hidden in giant data sets. My main interests involve machine learning, the interplay of advanced analytics and traditional enterprise-scale business intelligence, and decision science. My background as an aerospace systems engineer has given me a solid foundation in modeling and simulation techniques and optimization methods to pull from to move beyond descriptive and predictive analytics and into the realm of prescriptive analytics where needed.I was first exposed to machine learning and approaches to applied artificial intelligence as a member of the research faculty at Georgia Tech helping government and industry customers apply the amazing power of machine learning to large system-of-systems engineering challenges.Industry experience: • Health Care • Logistics and supply chain • Energy • Aerospace and defenseSkills and Interests: • Machine Learning, supervised and unsupervised algorithms • Multi-objective numerical optimization techniques • Stochastic modeling and simulation (MCMC, Agent-based, etc.) • Statistical analysis and data regression • Data modeling and warehousing at scale • Executive and operational interactive dashboard design • Game theory and financial modeling
