My responsibilities include identifying diverse and high-potential compounds for in-vitro screening and to improve machine learning generalizability. I work with Montai chemists to build tools to enable analysis of molecules based on important chemical features and predicted properties. In addition, I support biology teams by developing tools in Python to standardize and automate analysis of complex genetic data.

I collaborated with lab personnel and data engineers to automate ingestion of in-house generated data. Using external data from biological databases I performed unsupervised machine learning techniques to identify novel compounds as potential treatments. I further developed a web scraper to extract compound data from external websites.

My responsibilities included extracting, compiling, and formatting data from internal company databases for delivery to contracted pharmaceutical and biotech companies. I drafted analytical plans, amendments, and reports required by FDA regulations for pharmaceutical research. Further collaborated with Project Managers, Principal Investigators, Lab Personnel, and Quality Assurance Divisions to faciliate study progress and completion.

University of Utah Neuroscience Department
Salt Lake City, UT | 09/2017 to 03/2019

I led a team of scientists to publish a peer-reviewed study correlating prescription opioid overdoses and abuse with regional altitudes in the United States. I faciliated process improvement by helping secure funding to purchase computer software which minimized data analysis time by 400%. I additionally developed standard data templates for study data to automate calculations, increase clarity between scientists, and minimize errors.

University of Utah Neuroscience Department
Salt Lake City, UT | 08/2016 to 09/2017

I collected data from the CDC Wonder database and performed statistical analyses for manuscripts. These statistical analyses included logistic regression, multivariate linear regression, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and student's T-test. Additionally, I performed behavioral neuroscience experiments to collect behavioral data and subsequently analyzed said data to quantitatively investigate the impact of hypobraric-hypoxia on depression, anxiety, and substance abuse-related behavior.

Texas Tech University Neuroscience Department
Lubbock, TX | 06/2016 to 08/2016

I used immunohistochemistry staining and confocal microscopy to identify proteins in brain hippocampal layers; the proteins of which may be involved in the reducing symptoms of Alzheimer’s Disease.
