      Working with Dr. Ziheng Sun in Geoinformation Science Department to make Snow-Water-Equivalence (SWE) predictions publicly available using ML models. Developed/tested univariate Neural Networks using SNOTEL data and 50 multivariate Neural Networks using a 24-field dataset to forecast future SWE given a location achieving MSE of 6.989. Integrated models into SnowSource mobile app (iOS & Android) to provide SWE data to public. Abstract to be published in GMU Journal of Student-Scientists’ Research and to be presented at American Geophysical Union in December 2022. Show less

      Simons research fellow

      Selected as one of 50 Research Scholars from a pool of thousands of applicants from across the country. Working with Dr. William Holt at Stony Brook to develop a novel system for detecting offsets in GPS time-series. Developed a novel sliding window algorithm to generate a dataset of GPS time series labeled with offsets. Tested a number of different classifiers to develop a model with F1 score of .98 on both classes. Presented poster at Simons Summer Research Symposium in June 2022. Classifying man-made vs. seismic-related offsets and writing paper for conferences/competitions. Show less
