Data Scientist at RBC Amplify
My team won the award for most disruptive internal solution with our product Bundle. Bundle solves access management in the bank by leveraging machine learning to produce optimal access packages bases on patterns in existing access data. For this solution we used matrix factorization, clustering, network modelling, and d3.js for visualizations. The video portrays me as a designer, but I was of course a data scientist.

Spirit of the Forest Audio Collage:

When I first moved to Vancouver in May 2017, I was continuously bombarded by a stream of art and artists. I became imbued with the mystic energy which resonates here.
