ABOUT ME
I am an experienced data engineer based in Seattle, moving to Los Angeles in September 2018 for a part-time (evening) MS degree in Applied Statistics at UCLA. I am currently looking for a full-time data analyst/engineer or junior data scientist role in LA. My former education is from the University of Washington with double BS degrees in Computational Math and Mechatronics Engineering. Up to now, I bring a technical foundation of Python, SQL, JAVA, R, and scripting capabilities, not to be overshadowed by my ability to communicate effectively to all types of audiences. When I am not on the job, I love playing competitive soccer with my team and watching sports.
Competencies: data analysis, data processing, data visualization,
SQL, Excel, Tableau, Python/Java/C/R/Matlab

Projects
Senior Capstone
Operated as a computational designer in a project on balancing an inverted pendulum as part of a five-member team.
Developed a functioning prototype with a flywheel, a motor, an encoder, and a current amplifier along with coded scripts to control the motion. It successfully balanced upright for 15+ minutes even under small disturbance.
Created a comprehensive control analysis of the entire system using Matlab and Simulink. Compared the simulation and experimental data to determine whether the system met the pre-set functional specifications.
