Her background spans academia and industry, including a visiting professorship at Emory and published research in graph pattern matching, game theory, and genotype analysis where she applied Hadoop/Spark pipelines to bioscience data. Equally comfortable managing teams and diving into code, she has delivered end-to-end products from personalized student-feedback forecasting (r=0.98) to automated hardware-software systems for commercial and healthcare use. Notably, she blends theoretical strengths in reinforcement learning and game theory with pragmatic experience optimizing real-world operational workflows and large-scale educational interventions.
