Who Am I?

  • 👋 Hi, I’m @speersma.
  • I am an adept and data-driven scientist that:
    • Studied criminal justice and computational mathematics in graduate school
    • Has spent years developing several critical skills as a professional data scientist
  • Since graduate school I have worked for three years as a predictive modeler. During this time I've gained experience:
    • Developing and maintaining productionized python applications
    • Combining embedding models and string metrics for entity resolution
    • Building customized Jenkins pipelines to deploy applications
    • Working as a project lead responsible for:
      • Sheparding a project from the business objective stage to a final deliverable
      • Regularly communicating progress to technical and non-technical stakeholders
      • Data pipeline development (SQL & SSIS)
  • I'm interested in pursuing a career at the intersection of modeling and software development for a company that contributes beneficial and actionable knowledge to society.
  • Other Projects completed
    • Agent-based model of the theoretical propositions of routine-activities theory
    • Developed python scripts that construct and train an artificial neural network (ANN) using Pytorch. This ANN was used to predict reoffending dyads of domstic violence abusers and victims
    • Developed python scripts that construct and train a cross-validated logistic regression using Sci-Kit Learn.
    • Comparative quantitative analysis of the specificity and sensitivity of a domestic violence risk assessment across several algorithms/predictive models.
  • How to reach me: speersma@gmail.com
