# Steven Yu > Data Scientist, Software Developer, ML/AI Engineer | Python | Pandas, NumPy, Pytorch, SQL, Excel, Tableau Location: Berkeley, California, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/stevenyu As a Data Science Graduate at UC Berkeley, I have developed a strong foundation in statistical analysis, machine learning, and programming, with a domain emphasis in Applied Mathematics and Modeling. I am set to graduate in May 2024, and I am excited to apply my skills to real-world challenges in the fields of Data Science, Software Development, and Quantitative Finance. Currently, I am working as an Assistant at UC Berkeley Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost, where I have improved security and workflow by managing daily guest lists and document organization, and enhancing the website's reliability and customer service. I am also involved in various coursework and projects that showcase my technical expertise, analytical thinking, and quantitative finance enthusiasm. For example, I have used Python and R to analyze and visualize data sets, built and deployed machine learning models, and explored the applications of data science in finance. Additionally, I enjoy collaborating with diverse teams, leveraging collective strengths, and communicating effectively. I am actively seeking internships or entry-level positions where I can contribute to innovative projects, learn from experienced professionals, and continue to grow as a data scientist and software developer. ## Work Experience ### Admin Analyst (President's Executive Office PEO) @ University of California Office of the President Jan 2025 – Present - Lead financial planning activities, preparing annual budgets and fiscal forecasts to support executive decision-making. - Oversee end-to-end travel planning and reimbursements for the UC President, ensuring compliance with UC policies. - Manage procurement and contracting workflows for the President’s Executive Office, streamlining vendor and invoice processes. - Coordinate consulting projects, handling contract execution, budget tracking, and stakeholder communication. ### Admin Officer (Academic Affairs Provost Immediate Office PIO) @ University of California Office of the President Jan 2024 – Jan 2025 | Oakland, CA -Collaborated cross-functionally to support executive initiatives, managing secure document workflows and maintaining internal and external website content.
