Data Science Intern @ Battelle May 2025 - Aug 2025
As a Data Science Intern at Battelle, Under the CBRNE department specifically the Hazard Modelling team I Contributed to the design of a custom set data structure implemented using Numpy and Cupy.
Wrote Arrange-Act-Assert unit tests with random inputs using the hypothesis testing library.
Benchmarked performance of the set data structure and created analysis poster-presentation of the results.
Contributed to a large-scale disease spread simulation model to analyze outbreak dynamics and agricultural impacts across 48 U.S. states, enabling data-driven policy and mitigation strategies.
Engineered a computationally efficient approximation algorithm for a complex plume dispersion model, significantly improving runtime without compromising accuracy.
Implemented comprehensive end-to-end unit testing framework, ensuring model reliability, reproducibility, and code integrity throughout the development life-cycle.
Leveraged Matplotlib, Seaborn, and Pandas to produce clear, actionable visualizations that informed feature engineering and model tuning decisions during exploratory data analysis.
