Developing machine learning systems for remote sensing data and agriculture.

Full Bio

I am a Machine Learning Engineer at NASA Harvest where I work on scaling up machine learning research relating to agriculture and food security. I completed my master's degree in Computer Science at the University of Maryland. My thesis was titled "Usable Machine Learning for Remote Sensing Data". Before that, I worked at a fintech start-up developing machine learning and data science solutions for automating trade finance document processing. I completed a BEng in Software Engineering at the University of Western Ontario.


Professional Focus

1. Cropland mapping using machine learning and remote sensing data.
2. Scalable crop type data collection using GoPros and computer vision.
3. Machine learning advances for remote sensing data.
