In a day and age where we are overwhelmed with noise, an approach of essentialism is what I strive to perfect. Whether it is analyzing massive datasets to drive business impact, or building successful teams, my focus lies in centering work and people around the “why” of everything we do. My time at Purdue has given me perspective on using engineering as a tool for change through a breadth of different disciplines like Aerospace Engineering, AI, and Art.

At Purdue, I worked as a Technical PM for the Purdue Data Mine in collaboration with John Deere, where we developed a first of it’s kind, end-to-end ML pipeline to identify land candidates for wildlife conservation. Leading a team of 13, my chief challenge in this project was to build technical confidence within the team and deliver a vision and strategy, in conjunction with our experts and stakeholders.

I also led the Research Subteam for a Space Exploration focused club (SEARCH), while also setting the initial design philosophy for the organization. Here is a sample for one of the Keynote intros I designed using Apple Keynote. As a Graduate Researcher with the Center for Integrated Systems in Aerospace at Purdue on a NASA ULI project, I was part of a team working on large scale Hardware and Software systems integration to catalyze Urban Air Mobility growth.

Previously, I was also involved with Purdue Electric Racing, where I nurtured my love for motorsport, working as an Aerodynamicist for about a year. I currently work as a Data Analyst on the Medical Group Operations Team at Mid-Atlantic Permanente Medical Group - Kaiser Permanente in Maryland.
