Zehao Shi is a Data Science undergraduate at Northeastern (class of 2026) with a solid foundation in mathematics and practical experience applying statistical and Python-based analysis to real-world problems. He has hands-on skills in Linux system management, virtualization (VMware, Parallels, TeamViewer), R and Python (Pandas, NumPy), and LaTeX for reproducible research and reporting. Zehao led a team analyzing county-level business performance during COVID-19, visualizing results for 700+ counties and demonstrating strength in end-to-end data projects. He also contributed as an ML engineer to the MXNet Mask R-CNN repository, improving mask prediction robustness and ROIAlign performance—an uncommon open-source footprint for a current student. Recent industry exposure includes a commercial real-estate data internship at JLL Technologies, where he collected and synthesized data for investor consulting. Curious and detail-oriented, he combines systems-level tooling familiarity with statistical rigor to bridge data engineering and applied analysis.
