Projects
Exploring Gender and Awareness of Campus Resources | San Diego Mesa College
• Conducted a survey-based study to examine the relationship between gender and campus resources
• Analyzed categorical data using Chi-square hypothesis testing to assess independence between gender and awareness, selecting Chi-square over ANOVA based on variable type
• Cleaned and pre-processed data by recoding variables and adjusting categories to meet statistical assumptions, which improved the reliability of results
• Considered applications for similar decision-making in feature selection for ML models by aligning methods with variable types, research goals, and statistical assumptions
Statistical Data Analysis and Inference | UCSD
• Explored probability spaces, random variables, and distributions to support data-driven modeling and prediction
• Applied the Laws of Large Numbers and Central Limit Theorem to make predictions about large datasets, skills critical for data aggregation and sampling in machine learning
• Analyzed conditional probability and variable independence, gaining insight into feature relationships relevant to data science and ML applications
