Hi, I'm Jean-Paul (JP). I'm a junior research scientist at the American Museum of Natural History and interested in Data Science, Data Engineering and Analytics and actively applying to entry-level roles in those fields in the greater New York City area. In my research, I've applied statistical learning methods to areas of Astrophysics studying magnetic fields of low mass stars and exoplanet climate modeling while utilizing languages and analytics tools such as Python (Numpy, Pandas, Scipy and matplotlib libraries mostly), Jupyter Notebooks and SQL(Structured Query Language). In those endeavors, I've employed skills in Numerical Modeling, Statistics, Image/Signal processing, Data Engineering & Analysis and Data Sonification (translation of serial data into sound).
Exploring the behavior of low-mass star magnetic fields by correlating activity indicators among active and inactive samples.
Keywords: Data Analysis, Data Engineering, Data Visualization, Statistical Analysis, Calculus, User-defined functions, optimization, Signal Processing, SQL querying.
Developing and automating ingestion and reduction pipeline procedures for imaging data of comets from the discovery channel telescope.
Keywords: Data engineering, Data reduction, Data pipeline development, Data Visualization, Statistical Analysis, Signal Processing, Python.
Creation of a one dimensional model to explore the interaction between low mass stars and terrestrial planets in their habitable zones as well as an exploration of the role of a particular climate feedback in that habitability.
Star KIC-8462852 has had the astronomical community perplexed on account of its strange variations in brightness. Here I sonify the famous light curve observations (brightness variations over time) that made the object famous and continue to be an active area of study and speculation (ALIENS!!! just kidding... kinda).
