PROFESSIONAL EXPERIECE
/Goldman/ /Sachs/ /Inc/
During my tenure at the Ontario Institution of Cancer as a Junior Data Scientist, I engaged in several significant projects:
Time Series Anomaly Detection: Leveraging Python, I implemented advanced unsupervised machine learning techniques to detect anomalies in time series data. This involved processing a substantial 3TB dataset, where my approach led to a notable 20% reduction in total processing time, enhancing the efficiency of anomaly detection processes.
Data Wrangling and Visualization: I was responsible for managing and visualizing a vast 10TB dataset of traditional transaction data stored in the Hadoop Distributed File System. Using Python, I meticulously wrangled and transformed 16 previously inaccessible datasets, enabling over 500 end clients to effectively track the impact on liquidity. This effort not only provided valuable insights but also significantly improved data accessibility and usability for our stakeholders.
Publication and Research: I contributed to research efforts, resulting in publications such as "Regan Omolo, Reimand J, Network-rewriting shapes detection in Kanaso signaling network as information for cancer patients' survival," and "Krassowski M, Paezkowska M, Cullion K, Regan O, et al. Active Driver DB: human disease mutation and genome variation in post-translation sites of proteins, Nuclear Acid Res. 2021 doi:10.1093/nar/gkx972."
Utilization of High-Performance Computing Linux Cluster: I utilized Python and SQL on a high-performance computing Linux cluster to discover three new cancer shapes using SSFomer.
Presentation of Results: I presented the results of these projects to the global head of teams, providing an executive summary detailing the value proposition and strategy for presentation to clients and senior leadership.

Team Leader
/University of Moi/
Led a Team of 5 Students in Collaborating with Technology Experts
During my time as a student, I had the privilege of leading a team of five students in collaborating with technology experts to create a series of workshops, expos, and hackathons. These events were aimed at bringing together students and professionals interested in Python and AtoML (Atomistic Machine Learning), resulting in a combined attendance of over 1000 participants.
This experience not only allowed me to hone my leadership skills but also provided me with valuable insights into event planning and management. I was responsible for coordinating with technology experts to develop the content for the events, as well as organizing logistics such as venue selection, catering, and promotion.
Established and Maintained 4 Sponsorships
In addition to leading the team, I also took on the responsibility of establishing and maintaining sponsorships for our events. I successfully secured sponsorships from university departments, faculties, companies, and other student clubs, ensuring the financial viability of our initiatives.
Securing these sponsorships required strong negotiation skills and the ability to effectively communicate the value proposition of our events to potential sponsors. I was able to build strong relationships with our sponsors, which not only provided financial support but also opened up opportunities for future collaborations and partnerships.
