Experience

Zhiffy

Support Reliability and Cost Analyst

Focused on aircraft reliability analytics and data automation.
Developed a machine learning-based Python program to analyze free-text aircraft snags, extract root causes using clustering (HDBSCAN), sentence embeddings (Sentence Transformer), and keyword extraction (KeyBERT); output structured summaries and root cause statistics
Automated aircraft status tracking using Oracle-derived datasets; designed a Python workflow to analyze status trends, compare historical records, update live records, and detect inconsistencies in aircraft operations
Designed a Power BI dashboard to visualize aircraft incidents; implemented a real-time alert system using DAX-calculated tables to flag unusual events against multi-year trend baselines
Tools: Python, PowerBI, MicroStrategy

Brain-Computer Interface Soft Adaptive Hat

Undergraduate Researcher

Led the design and fabrication of an innovative electrode hat utilizing Liquid Crystal Elastomer (LCE) material to achieve one-size-fits-all functionality through body-temperature-driven contraction.
Performed chemical experiments to synthesize and test various LCE formulations; created a specialized compound exhibiting controlled contraction with temperature changes.
Utilized 3D design software to optimize the hat’s shape using Curvature Characterization of Spherical and Linear Growth derivations; generated STL files and authored code for 3D printing.
Fabricated customized molds tailored for LCE, enabling high sensitivity to body temperature.
