About me
I have worked in the field of biological data analysis for the last 15 years, processing vast amounts of genomic data for humans and other organisms and performing statistical analysis. In my most recent enterprise position, I designed and built a medical diagnosis product, where prediction of disease onset by a machine learning model was the key idea. I am seeking a data science or machine learning role in other industries as well as biotech, where I can leverage my data analysis experience and computing skills to tackle AI problems.
I have solid foundation in computing skills required to excel in data science and machine learning. I have experience building target prediction pipelines using open-source tools, including Python, SQL, R, Java and ML/DL frameworks such as TensorFlow. I am also eagerly expanding my machine learning and AI skill sets.
My earlier work before biological data analysis was on computer vision, including object detection, video processing and face/gesture recognition, with about 13 years of experience. I am updating these foundational skills in the context of deep learning to be able to solve significant computer vision problems with deep neural networks.
I have experience managing several multi-disciplinary teams and collaborated with subject matter experts with diverse expertise, including statisticians, biologists, IT administrators, and project managers.
