Years ago, I planned to become an astronaut and play football on the moon. Time passed, plans changed. I am now working on data with a dream of changing something for good.

I’m currently working as a Data Scientist, having fun with data and attempting to solve all kinds of problem.

I obtained my Master’s degree in Computer Science and Public Policy at the University of Chicago . Here, I was studying a mixture of statistics, algorithms, and machine learning. My research focus was multimodal deep learning used in cancer risk predictions: A Deep Learning Multimodal Approach to Survival Risk Prediction in Kidney Cancer Patients (code and paper ). I also worked as teaching assistant for CAPP 30254: Machine Learning for Public Policy, MPCS 51042: Python programming, CAPP 30122: Computer Science with Applications 2. I occasionally solve problems on LeetCode and Advent-of-Code puzzles , and compete in Kaggle competitions .

Before graduate school, I worked in database programming and program evaluation for a non-profit focused on child development in Vietnam. It was a wonderful time when I learned a great deal about civic technology and was inspired by incredible colleagues and people in the impact areas.

In my free time, I enjoy watching football, cruising the local food scene, and review movies.
