Projects
The Health Data Science Framework
- A poster presented at Duke Health in which I created a step-by-step guide that combined the CRISP-DM (Cross Industry Standard Process for Data Mining) and PM-BOK (Project Management Book of Knowledge) to help with planning and completing data science and machine learning projects.
A Guide to Conducting a Successful Computer Vision Project
- A 50+ page manual and presentation given at Duke Health that outlines the process of a computer vision project from start to finish, with dedicated sections for Duke-specific resources. Developed with three colleagues.
Mentorship
I have held various informal mentoring roles since undergrad, helping my peers with everything from grad school prep to conducting AI research. Now, I mentor my colleagues in data analytics- specifically, how to use the business intelligence software MicroStrategy.
“Everyone on the team had positive feedback and thought your training was very helpful. It was especially helpful having a training specific to one of our frequently used reports. You did a great job!”
