Experience
City of Kenmore
Traffic & Data Engineer Intern · Kenmore, WA
Puget Sound Regional Council
Data Science Intern · Seattle, WA
- Future Land Use project: designed an AI-driven pipeline that parsed and standardized zoning codes across all 80+ jurisdictions in the region.

University of Washington · Seattle, WA
- Markov dynamic Bayesian-network demographic microsimulation module within POLARIS simulating household and individual life-stage transitions (aging, education, employment, marriage/divorce, birth/death, migration).
AI-Based Feedback for Reducing E-Scooter Sidewalk Riding
University of Washington · Seattle, WA
- Randomized A/B experiment evaluating AI-generated in-app warnings' effectiveness at decreasing sidewalk riding of shared e-scooters.
