Luana Fragoso is a software engineer and Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science at the University of Saskatchewan with 10 years of experience spanning data analysis, backend development, and simulation software. She blends strong academic training—MSc with a 9.1/10 and a Magna Cum Laude bachelor's—with production engineering work at Yelp and a history of improving large-scale C# simulation tooling (including a 30% memory improvement on FEM meshes). Comfortable in Python, R, Java and C#, she moves between data science and systems development and mentors teams and students as a TA and sessional instructor. Luana has a track record of introducing Agile practices, improving development workflows, and contributing to reproducible data analysis (Shiny apps, SAS-to-R migrations), showing a practical focus on performance and usability that complements her research into player behavior modeling.
