Akamai Technologies

I served as Data Scientist and Product Owner for the Web Performance team for Akamai mPulse. Initially, I joined as a member of the Professional Services team, where I took on the role of a customer facing data science consultant for many of the world’s largest brands. After transitioning to a backend product development role, I built statistical models from large amounts of data to identify problem areas on customer websites and recommend actionable improvements toward the end user experience. I also created compelling visualizations to communicate these insights to executive management teams.

During my time at Akamai, I had the opportunity to share some of my work in public forums:

• Performance Implications of JavaScript Errors
• RUM Archive and Benford's Law
• RUM Archive Holiday Traffic 2023
• An Introduction to the Frustration Index

SOASTA

I joined SOASTA as a Data Scientist after graduate school. In this new role, I was able to apply my existing quantitative training and further strengthen my computational knowledge using new tools and data frameworks.

SOASTA was acquired by Akamai Technologies in April 2017.
