I am a Senior Data Specialist at the University of Calgary, in Alberta, Canada. My expertise lies in identifying and visualizing patterns and trends in the data, interpreting the data to pinpoint issues, presenting solutions, and building predictive models and reporting dashboards. I have developed several advanced ML projects, leveraging large volumes of various types of institutional data with great results and accuracy. I also built multiple comprehensive reports and visualization dashboards for various business objectives. Currently, I am working on multiple other predictive models.
I have a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Calgary. I successfully completed the program in 3 years and 2 months. I had the pleasure of working as a Graduate Research Assistant under the supervision of Professor Carey Williamson and Adjunct Professor Martin Arlitt (Principal Research Scientist at OpenText). During my Ph.D. thesis, I studied the pandemic effects on the University of Calgary's campus network. I worked on extensive volumes of data (more than half a petabyte) to study the longitudinal changes in network traffic patterns, the rise and performance implications of videoconferencing applications (with a deeper focus on Zoom), security implications on the campus network, and the changes in the Internet usage and behavioral patterns of different campus sub-communities.
