experience
Expedia Groupjun 2026 - aug 2026
Machine Learning Engineer InternSan Jose, CA
- Built a FastAPI prototype for OneKey, a 100M+ member rewards program, with live profiles and safe fallbacks
- Measured the program's first randomized causal readout on a live holdout: +6.6% relative booking lift at p<0.001
- Designed a typed reward API adopted by two sibling services, isolating clients from model changes
- Defined a 27-field train/serve contract from 112 model features and verified live intent-data backfill
- Replay-tested the reward decision path, catching eligibility, timeout, and schema failures before demo
- Validated experiment assignment and derived leakage-safe booking and redemption features with Trino SQL
Freddie Macmay 2025 - jul 2025
Software Engineer InternMcLean, VA
- Built Java Spring Boot microservices that process and validate 120k accounting events, deployed via Jenkins CI/CD
- Designed GraphQL schema and resolvers to consolidate 200+ REST endpoints, cutting Angular client payload by 60%
- Led a POC comparing Playwright and Cypress, achieving 4x faster tests (8 to 2 minutes) and driving tool migration
- Automated nightly data refresh via Python and Jenkins, cutting UAT load time from 2 hours to 10 minutes
- Classified transactions with business rules, ingesting from AWS S3 and storing results in MongoDB
Biocomplexity Institute, UVAnov 2024 - may 2025
AI/ML Research AssistantCharlottesville, VA
- Built scalable graph-analysis pipelines with cuGraph, SciPy, and NetworkX on 1.2M-edge ICIJ and crypto graphs
- Raised AUC-ROC from 0.55 (logistic baseline) to 0.76, surfacing 250 anomalies at 89% precision
- Applied centrality metrics and One-Class SVM to flag and rank illicit transaction patterns
- Scaled GPU-parallel anomaly detection to 2M+ nodes and edges with cuGraph
- Validated the model on IBM AMLSim, confirming performance across real and synthetic financial graphs
Cubic Corporationjun 2024 - aug 2024
Software Engineer InternSterling, VA
- Built and deployed an AWS-hosted Docusaurus portal with React and Terraform, serving 500+ engineers
- Integrated AWS CodeBuild to run lint and test checks on pull requests, reducing manual QA
- Cut onboarding tickets 85% (90 to 13) in one month by redesigning site flow and UI after user testing
- Added Algolia DocSearch: 95% top-3 result rate and 120ms median query latency
