Laura CalcagniData Scientist
I am a Physicist & Data Scientist and I have more than 4 years of experience in Data Analysis, Data Science, Reporting and Programming. I analyzed a large amount of data from Monte Carlo computer simulations during my Ph.D. and also obtained at the Pierre Auger International Cosmic Ray Observatory, of which I was part as a Collaborating Member. I have been working as a Data Analyst at uBiome (a microbiome company based in San Francisco) until it went bankrupt. My main job there was reporting relevant metrics from several sources to the CEO of the company. I have also migrated some R projects to Python. Now I am working as a short term contractor Data Scientist at Allfields, a company based in Wellington, New Zealand. My main job is to build, train and deploy Machine Learning models regarding Recommendation Systems and using NLP (Natural Language Processing) algorithms.
