CHEMISTRY:YEARS OF EXPERIENCE


Biography (it is long)
Graduating from Colorado State University with a chemistry degree in 2013, I landed an opportunity to work at the forefront of analytical quantification methodologies for cannabis at Nordic Analytic. Being in the first state to legalize cannabis in the U.S., I was among the pioneering chemists in the cannabis testing industry, helping shape the methodologies we use today. I'm honored that my potency testing methodology was chosen by the state of Colorado as the industry standard. Later on, I joined Cannasafe in Los Angeles as the potency team lead. There, I built the potency department from the ground up and eventually managed a team of 8. During my tenure, we were ranked the 13th fastest-growing start-up in the U.S. by Inc., with our revenue skyrocketing by 12,143 percent.
Throughout this journey, I recognized the vital role of the laboratory information management system (LIMS) in a scientific lab. Collaborating with software engineers responsible for LIMS at both Nordic Analytic and Cannasafe, I discovered my aptitude and enthusiasm for software development and how it can be used to solve everyday problems. I started with coding courses on Codecademy, and when COVID hit, I shifted away from chemistry and returned to Colorado State University for its newly revamped computer science program. In just 2 years, I earned my second bachelor's degree with magna cum laude distinction and began pursuing my master's focusing on AI, cybersecurity, and data science. During this time, I was actively working on creating a laboratory information management system with Dil Ahdan in London, that aimed to solve the problems cannabis testing labs were facing in their day-to-day lives. However, after two years, we recognized that the market was not ready to invest in our product due to resistance to change and strict industry regulations on data, making it difficult for clients to take the risk of migrating to a new and unknown LIMS.
This project taught me an important lesson: the need to fully understand the 'why' behind a solution. If we had taken the time to ask the potential clients what they were truly looking for and why they wanted a new solution, we would have realized that those voicing the complaints were not the decision-makers in charge of spending. We also came to understand that with our current levels of dedication, the product was bound to fail. This experience has driven me to approach problem-solving by focusing on understanding the project goals/client needs and asking the right questions to ensure alignment between the solution and the goal.
I then had my first corporate internship at Charles Schwab, where I identified my top 5 CliftonStrengths (Woo, Ideation, Learner, Futuristic, and Activator). During this internship, I self-reflected and realized how much I thrive in roles that allow me to connect with people while applying technical skills. I’m passionate about exploring new ideas, building relationships, and driving forward-thinking solutions that align with both user and business goals.
Now, after obtaining my master’s degree focusing on AI, cybersecurity, and data science, I’m eager to find roles that allow me to blend my technical expertise with my love for communication and problem-solving. I am driven not just to solve problems but to understand the 'why' behind them. My goal is to work on AI projects that have a real-world impact, particularly in areas like natural language processing, generative AI, and data-driven decision-making, ensuring that the solutions I help design are innovative, effective, and aligned with user needs and business objectives.
I’ve learned through experience that diving into development without a deep understanding of the underlying problem can lead to wasted effort. This has shaped my approach, ensuring that the solutions I design are not only innovative but also genuinely aligned with user needs and business objectives. I’m excited to see where generative AI and other emerging technologies will take us, and I’m committed to staying at the forefront of these advancements, constantly learning and growing to harness these technologies effectively.

ethr/place: A Decentralized, Collaborative Pixel Art Platform on Ethereum
Ethr/place is a decentralized, collaborative pixel art platform built on the Ethereum blockchain, inspired by Reddit's r/place project. Ethr/place leverages the benefits of blockchain technology, such as decentralization, immutability, and smart contract capabilities, to create a transparent, secure, and engaging platform for users to collaborate on digital art. We hope to address the challenges encountered in the original r/place project, such as bot interference by implementing additional logic and measures to ensure fairness and genuine user participation. Furthermore, Ethr/place introduces novel incentive mechanisms and potential monetization strategies, including a referral program and revenue-sharing model, to reward users for their contributions and foster active community engagement. This paper outlines the design, implementation, and key features of Ethr/place, highlighting its advantages over the traditional r/place collaborative art platform and discussing potential challenges and future developments. Through the integration of blockchain technology and community-driven governance, Ethr/place seeks to establish itself as a fun reimagination of the original r/place success.
Double Dueling Deep Q Reinforcement Based Trading Agent: A Sentiment, Search Trends, Financial Data, and Blockchain Information based Approach
This paper presents a reinforcement learning-based trading agent designed to navigate the volatile cryptocurrency market, with a focus on the Ethereum market. Building upon the foundation laid by David Gallo's thesis [1], which utilized Double Deep Q-Networks (DDQN) and Dueling Deep Q-Networks, the proposed trading agent incorporates several improvements to enhance its performance and adaptability. Key upgrades to the architecture include the implementation of LeakyReLU activation functions and batch normalization, which contribute to the stability and generalization performance of the underlying neural networks. The agent is also equipped with a more diverse set of features, such as sentiment data, search trends, financial indicators, and blockchain data, which allow it to make more informed decisions in the face of market volatility. To further improve the agent's decision-making capabilities, a curriculum learning approach is employed, progressively exposing the agent to increasingly complex market scenarios and fostering better adaptability. The results of the experiments show the promise of the trading agent in generating profitable trading strategies and adapting to prevailing market trends. By building upon and enhancing the original agent proposed in Gallo's thesis, this research demonstrates the potential of reinforcement learning and artificial intelligence in developing robust and adaptive trading strategies in the ever-changing cryptocurrency market.

Exploiting SEC Insider Trading Form 4 Filings: A Dueling Double Deep Q Neural Network-based Reinforcement Learning Approach
This paper aims to identify the potential of exploiting legal insider trading information from SEC Form 4 filings using advanced reinforcement learning techniques. By harnessing a Dueling Double Deep Q-Network (DDDQN), we investigate whether residual market effect following insider trades can be identified and utilized for financial gain within a 14-day window post-disclosure. The methodology consists of extensive data preprocessing, real-time data integration via Apache Storm, financial feature engineering, and the development of a curriculum-based AI trading agent. The unique combination of Double Deep Q Networks and Dueling Networks, enhanced by Prioritized Experience Replay was chosen as it has been shown to handle complex, dynamic environments similar to financial markets. Preliminary results following Curriculum 1 indicate that although the agent is demonstrating potential, significant refinements in risk management and decision-making need to be addressed in the subsequent curricula.

Towards a Comprehensive Dataset for Discrimination between Warranted and Unwarranted Emails
Current spam filters tend to have an over-reliance on user feedback to train their models. Spam, by definition, is unsolicited usually commercial correspondence sent to a large number of recipients. Interestingly though, a significant portion of emails perceived as spam are actually solicited commercial messages that recipients have, in some manner, consented (explicitly or implicitly) to receive. Users tend to flag these solicited emails as spam rather than unsubscribe which trains machine learning-based spam filters to adjust weights to bias against solicited commercial correspondence and potentially reduce their effectiveness at recognizing subtle cues of unsolicited malicious spam. We have created a dataset of warranted spam (solicited 'spam') that can be used alongside the Bruce Guenter Spam Archive that consists of unwarranted spam (unsolicited spam) to allow us to train a classification model to distinguish between warranted and unwarranted spam. Once the model is created, after a user flags an email as spam, it will be input into our model and classified as either 'warranted spam' or 'unwarranted spam'. If the email is classified as warranted it will not be used to train the spam filter but a rule will be created to prevent similar emails from entering the user's inbox. If the reported email is classified as unwarranted, it will be used to update the spam filter. By doing this, we can begin to harden spam filters as they will be more focused on unsolicited spam as opposed to solicited, unwanted commercial correspondence.

GitHub Copilot: A Threat to High School Security? Exploring GitHub Copilot's Proficiency in Generating Malware from Simple User Prompts
Abstract—This paper examines the potential implications of script kiddies and novice programmers with malicious intent having access to GitHub Copilot, an artificial intelligence tool developed by GitHub and OpenAI. The study assesses how easily one can utilize this tool to generate various common types of malware ranging from ransomware to spyware, and attempts to quantify the functionality of the produced code. Results show that with a single user prompt, malicious software such as DoS programs, spyware, ransomware, trojans, and wiperware can be created with ease. Furthermore, uploading the generated executables to VirusTotal revealed an average of 7/72 security vendors flagging the programs as malicious. This study has shown that novice programmers and script kiddies with access to Copilot can readily create functioning malicious software with very little coding experience. This paper discusses how this could potentially lead to an increase in internal attacks on schools due to the average age demographic of the target group. However, if used correctly this technology could potentially help this same demographic gain the skills needed for ethical hacking practices utilized in the cybersecurity space.
