Bio
Jen Wu
I'd highly recommend working with Berenice. A clear and thoughtful communicator, she takes time to understand the issues at hand comprehensively. Our ML project involved both teamwork and individual initiative, and she is great at both!
Cdr Dhiraj Khanna (retd.)
I have had the pleasure of mentoring Berenice over the last 9 months in her journey of becoming a data scientist. The work she has done during this time period is indeed commendable. It was a pleasure working with her on two real world problems with great usability in the real world. Apart from her technical acumen, and the ability to grasp new concepts with ease, the one thing that really stands out is her attitude towards problem solving. She is very creative in her approach towards solving problems and comes out with the most innovative solutions to difficult problems. Knowing how to apply a machine learning algorithm to a problem is not the real solution. The ability to do some clever feature engineering, augment the given data and apply principles from other scientific disciplines, is really what makes her stand out. I have no doubt that Berenice will be a priceless asset to whichever organization she decides to lend her services too. I wish her the very best in all her future endeavours.

Aug 2020 - Jun 2021
I am building a tool to assist physicians in finding the best treatment for chronically-ill patients using Big Data. I work with a fantastic team at Aevus Precision Rx, a startup creating an AI-powered prescription guidance platform. We are currently focusing on Type 2 diabetes.On a typical day, I perform some of the following tasks:- data wrangling (from Electronic Health Records)- feature engineering- machine learning model development and performance evaluation- discussions about model explainability with subject-matter experts (physicians)- presentations to stakeholdersI also contribute to other aspects of the product development (UI/UX, data partnerships, startup stuff, etc.)
