Statistical Consulting

Statistical Consultant, Advanced Modeling/Artificial Intelligence Group, Corteva Agriscience (remote experience from spring 2023 to spring 2024).

I assessed the impact of regulatory requirement changes on previous benchmark dose (BMD) analyses. I also tested and compared the performances of available software for BMD analyses to choose the best option for production use.

Internships

Analytics Intern, Intelligent Solutions Group, John Deere (remote experience during summer 2021).

I engineered new features from field operation data and integrated them into machine learning pipelines using Python. I also used natural language processing to reduce the dimensionality of data on the crop types planted in fields, simplifying the inclusion of this information in models. I predicted field operation areas using deep learning models and deployed the most effective model to the production model repository.

Analytics Intern, Ag and Turf Order Fulfillment, John Deere (remote experience during summer 2020).

I modeled yearly turf product sales for North America at the state/province level using year-to-date sales and weather. I then aggregated these predictions up to the continental level. My forecasts of total sales volume were more accurate earlier in the fiscal year than sales forecast methods already in use.
