## Work Experience
### Senior Software Engineer @ Google
Jan 2020 – Present | San Francisco, California, United States

### Participant @ GROW (Graduate Research Opportunities for Women) 2020
Jan 2020 – Jan 2020
The GROW 2020 conference is aimed at female-identified undergraduate students who may be interested in pursuing a graduate degree in the mathematical sciences. The conference is open to undergraduates from U.S. colleges and universities, including international students.

This event is being supported by the Institute for Mathematical and Statistical Innovation, the University of Chicago Department of Mathematics, and the National Science Foundation.

### Student Researcher under Michelle Nuno (PhD Student) @ University of California, Irvine
Jan 2018 – Jan 2020
Analyzed of clinical data from a study conducted at the Alzhimer's Disease Research Center (ADRC) at UCI, to determine the presence of the learning effect in the Letter Fluency Test

### Student Researcher under Professor Andre Van Der Hoek @ University of California, Irvine
Jan 2018 – Jan 2020
Goal: Trying to reduce "undocumented knowledge" in software systems by building a mechanism to link developer code commits to issues reported in Issue Tracking Systems

Tested the information retrieval approach, of generating a ranked list using tf-idf values and cosine similarity scores, against 20+ java-based open source projects of varying scale.

For most of the 20+ projects, the IR approach resulted in true links between commit and issue showing up in the top 10 "most similar" issues at least 60% of the time.

### User Interface Developer @ Ureka Science
Jan 2018 – Jan 2020
Developed features for mobile and web versions of the app using React-Native and React, respectively

### Software Engineering Intern @ Google
Jan 2019 – Jan 2019 | Boulder, Colorado
Wrote an RPC that handles upwards of 50000 queries per second to fix a bug in the notification scheduling system that would lead to erroneous server calls.

Developed a set of internal debugging tools (can be found on Now-Debug) to allow developers to test the scheduling of Google Search Notifications. Wrote multiple RPC services (in C++), an API layer to communicate with the RPCs (in Java), and a UI in Angular JS that communicated with the Java server.

### Student and Researcher @ Summer Institute in Biostatistics
Jan 2018 – Jan 2018
Attended a 6 week program at NC State and Duke Universities focused on conducting statistical analysis on clinical data, using SAS and R. 

Worked with an abridged version of the SYMPHONY Dataset from the NIH to determine which baseline factors are significant predictors of Myocardial Infarction.

### Lab Tutor @ University of California, Irvine
Jan 2016 – Jan 2018
Taught and guided students taking Data Structures and Algorithms (in C++), Programming with Software Libraries (in Python 3), and Intermediate Programming (in Python 3).

### Mentor @ Dreams for Schools
Jan 2017 – Jan 2017
Spread awareness about the potential career options in STEM (specifically Computer Science) by leading/mentoring a team 5 middle school students in android app development (using MIT's AppInventor)


## Education
### Bachelor of Science - BS in Data Science
University of California, Irvine
Jan 2016 – Jan 2020
