Jan 2021 - May 2022
Worked on multiple data-driven journalistic projects for media outlets that partnered with BU’s start-up incubator, including: ● Reported and wrote an investigative piece on the Massachusetts Department of Correction that was published on the front page of the Boston Globe. Requested and used Python to analyze thousands of pages of inmate grievance forms. ● Read and classified 1000+ federal appellate decisions and newspaper archives to train machine learning models to identify instances of prosecutorial misconduct. ● Aided in the design of textual analysis algorithms to develop a tool for identifying racial bias in local news coverage for the NAACP and GBH, a Boston NPR affiliate. ● Used Python to analyze 2009-2019 Boston voter and census data for correlations between voting patterns and demographic changes. Analysis formed the basis for a story in the Bay State Banner, a local Boston newspaper that serves the city’s Black and Latino residents. Show less
