Background
I'm (approximately) a np.floor((date.today() - date(1996, 1, 1)).days/365) year old data professional with a passion for solving problems. Here you'll find various information about my background and skill-sets.
Data Scientist and Mathematician
After bouncing around a few engineering disciplines, I graduated from Clemson University in 2018 with my Bachelor's in Mathematics and a minor in Computer Engineering.
Four years and two graduate degrees later, I joined The Walt Disney Company's Decision Science division after graduating with my Ph.D. in Mathematics.
There, I grew from a research oriented math student into an industry minded decision scientist. I learned a ton about how, when, and when not to apply my schooling to real, large scale business problems.
I developed production grade revenue management systems, managed younger coworkers, and expanded my storytelling skills into high impact, precise communication.
After 3.5 years at Disney, I left in 2025 to join Sabre's revenue management arm as a Lead Data Scientist which is where I reside today.
Hobbies and Interests
I thoroughly enjoy studying/thinking/participating in the act of making decisions.
That is why even when I am not working, I enjoy engaging in decision science-adjacent fields.
For me, these include: watching sports, competing in sports, and playing (competitive) games.
Additionally, a more recent interest of mine has been sharing and delivering "technical" content to anyone.
On my content page, you'll find some of these writings/side projects which, again, are centered around decision-rich fields such as sports and games.
When I inevitably need to use less of my brain, I enjoy spending time with my wife and family - frequently visiting Disney's theme parks and other pastimes.
Topics of Interest
Here I list a few topics of particular interest along with a rough estimation of my relative familiarity with the topic (10 being my personal most comfortable topic)
