Experience

Where I've worked and the impact I've made

Data Science Intern

Chista

Aug 2025 – Present

Key Achievements:

  • Engineered an autonomous ingestion pipeline using CrewAI (Agentic LLMs) to parse unstructured healthcare data, reducing client onboarding time by 40%
  • Built a "Golden Layer" validation framework in PostgreSQL, implementing rigorous data quality checks that eliminated consistency errors across complex formulary datasets
  • Deployed a Traceability Audit Tool (using FastAPI/Streamlit) allowing stakeholders to visualize model lineage and source data

CO₂ Forecasting Engine

Developed an end-to-end CO₂ emissions forecasting pipeline by integrating unsupervised learning and predictive modeling techniques. Applied K-Means and Agglomerative Clustering to segment regions based on historical emission patterns and climate indicators. Built and compared time-series and machine learning models, including Holt-Winters, ARIMA, Linear Regression, SVR, and Random Forest, evaluating performance using MAE and RMSE to identify the most robust approach and generate cluster-specific forecasts for climate trend analysis.
