Featured Projects

Diagnostic Concordance in Rural Dermatology Referrals

Stack: R, GLM, Random Forest

Analyzed 2,000+ de-identified EHR referrals from Billings Clinic. Built a custom Jaro-Winkler algorithm to standardize diagnoses. GLM achieved AUC = 0.838, identifying specialty, age, and prior treatment as key predictors.

Breast Cancer Recurrence Analysis

Stack: R, Bayesian Modeling

Estimated the treatment effect of hormone therapy on recurrence using MLE and Bayesian inference. Implemented Metropolis-Hastings and Gibbs sampling, with all three methods converging on consistent posterior estimates.

Student Iron Viz 2025 — IMDB Visualization

Stack: Tableau

Built an interactive Tableau dashboard from IMDB data, combining storytelling, visual design, and analytical depth. Selected as the global winner by a panel of Tableau Ambassadors and Visionaries.

Enterprise Reporting Infrastructure

Stack: Tableau, Power BI, Snowflake SQL

Modernized reporting for compliance, operations, and customer verification teams at Western Union. Migrated Western Union's two highest-traffic reports from Tableau to Power BI using Snowflake-backed data models, reaching 1,200+ users and saving 12 to 15 hours of manual work each week.

Loan Default Prediction

Stack: Python, XGBoost, LightGBM, CatBoost

Trained and tuned ensemble models to predict loan default risk on a structured financial dataset. Used RandomizedSearchCV for hyperparameter optimization, with all three algorithms converging on consistent performance.

Data Quality Monitoring Dashboard

Stack: SQL Server, Informatica, Power BI

Designed 20+ custom SQL validation scripts to detect data quality exceptions across enterprise real estate datasets, integrated into Informatica workflows for 18 data stewards. Shifted the team from reactive resolution to proactive monitoring.
