Me: “I’ve read this textbook from cover to cover.”
Also me: “Hear me out, 2e-5 is the best learning rate.”
Data Scientist. Part of GAMMA, an organization that applies machine learning and other advanced analytics tools to solve problems across a variety of industries.
Machine Learning Developer. Mainly worked on SAP Cash Application, SAP’s flagship machine learning solution that automates manual accounting procedures using machine learning algorithms. I was the youngest and first bachelor hire for the position.
Founder. A coding academy for students of all ages, currently operating in Singapore and Manila.
Developer. Worked with Virgil Griffith on Roster under the Open Technology Fund Emerging Technologies Fellowship.
Developer. Used Neo4j and other web technologies to build a graphical database that visualizes and analyzes user behavior and interactions on the company’s app.
SAP’s first open-source machine learning library for explainability. It aims to address the trust gap between machine learning systems and their users. Check out the release blog post here.
An online questionnaire that matches users with one of ten Singaporean political parties. Created to provide insight to the electorate of Singapore before its 2015 General Election. Launched one week prior to the elections, the app received 670,000+ page views and over 180,000 unique users.

The largest student data science competition sponsored by companies like Microsoft, Capgemini, and AXA. Competed among a group of graduate students. We also talked about our experience at a data science meet-up in Singapore.
Created Portal, an Android application that harnesses beacon technology to enhance marketing. When a user is interested in a product on a poster ad in a public space, he or she can receive a virtual version of that ad on a smartphone and purchase the product directly from the app.
Created Aviato, an online travel platform that aggregates data from travelers’ social network profiles including Facebook to make better recommendations to customers, while providing deeper insight on travel trends for companies.
Created Blackhat, a blackbox + construction helmet. Attaching various sensors, including a thermometer, a hygrometer, and an IMU to a construction helmet, we created a wearable that can record data about the immediate surroundings of each construction worker, providing insight about the safety conditions of the work environment.
