I design and build interactive front-end product prototypes that help clients quickly understand, evaluate, and refine potential digital solutions. Working from scratch, I translate high-level business ideas into functional demos that support decision-making and product development. My role combines business analysis, product thinking, and hands-on engineering using modern AI-powered development tools.

Develop comprehensive AI strategy recommendations for clients across industries, with proven success in driving implementation - including a hospital system that adopted every recommended solution from my strategic roadmap. Build and deploy intelligent automation systems for internal operations, including marketing workflows, project coordination, and AI-powered lead generation pipelines that optimize targeting and outreach effectiveness. Support executive education initiatives by analyzing client AI proposals, identifying high-impact opportunities, and advising technical teams on solution prioritization for product development. Bridge AI strategy and implementation to transform business challenges into scalable, intelligent solutions that deliver measurable organizational impact.

I help drive internal efficiency and strategic growth by developing intelligent automation systems tailored to our team's operational needs and client-facing goals. I’ve built and deployed internal automations for marketing operations, project alignment, and knowledge sharing, streamlining workflows and improving coordination across the company. I also created a lead generation pipeline for keynote speaking opportunities using AI-powered search, filtering, and scoring logic to improve targeting and outreach. In addition, I support our executive education efforts by analyzing applied AI proposal lists submitted by client executives, identifying high-impact product opportunities, and advising our technical team on which solutions to prioritize for development. My work bridges AI strategy and implementation, helping transform real-world business challenges into scalable, intelligent solutions.

Recently, I am developing a spatiotemporal machine learning model tailored for panel data analysis, significantly enhancing our ability to capture complex spatial and temporal trends. Navigating challenging, low-quality datasets has pushed me to innovate in data cleaning and project methodology, and I am currently pivoting the project to address these real-world research hurdles.

Collaborating on a research project utilizing R and Geospatial data to conduct hedonic analysis, aiming to quantify the impact of invasive aquatic plants on real estate values. This role involves data cleaning, statistical modeling, and contributing to findings that inform environmental and economic policy decisions.

Recently promoted from Assistant Events Preparator, I now take the lead in making our events run like clockwork. From mapping out timelines and coordinating with vendors to making sure every guest feels welcome, I’m the go-to person for bringing each event to life. I work closely with staff, artists, and partners to ensure every detail reflects the museum’s mission and atmosphere.

In this role, I was the behind-the-scenes problem solver who made sure events happened without a hitch. I prepped spaces, managed student worker teams, and kept everything running smoothly so guests could focus on enjoying the art and experiences. Comfort, safety, and flow were always top of mind.

I started my museum journey helping visitors connect with the art they loved. Whether it was guiding someone toward the perfect piece or sharing stories about an exhibit, my goal was always to make their visit memorable. Along the way, I built lasting relationships, supported membership growth, and contributed to the museum’s sales success.

Developing the Vibraptic class A predictive maintenance system for vibrational anomaly detection and flagging. Designed for rotation based systems in remote locations or at extreme scale. Wasted compute creates clogged networks that become riddled with false alarms. Current solutions are too inefficient to be reliable at large scale, low power or low streaming ability circumstances.

As a business student with an interest in technology and innovation, I served as the project manager for a multidisciplinary team of computer science students. Together, we tackled a unique challenge within Shell's transportation, safety, and compliance.​ In this role, I bridged the gap between business strategy and technical execution. I coordinated project timelines, facilitated effective communication among team members, and ensured that our solutions aligned with Shell's operational goals and compliance standards.​ This experience has honed my leadership skills and deepened my understanding of how cross-functional teams can leverage advancing technology to drive impactful solutions in the energy industry.

Administered surveys at events surrounding the 2025 New Orleans Super Bowl weekend. Collected valuable data on economic impact variables, contributing to ongoing research efforts. Collaborated effectively in a team environment to ensure efficient data collection and analysis.
