Heya! I’m Adit.

I am currently a data scientist at Breeze Airways. While I've primarily worked in analytics recently (specifically in the travel industry), I've also interned in software development, venture capital, and marketing. Across all that is a shared passion for building thoughtfully designed products with great people, and hopefully improving the world along the way.
I got my MS in Computer Science from Georgia Tech, specializing in Machine Learning. Prior to that, I got a BA in Economics from the University of Chicago. Outside of work, I’m a rock climber, photographer, national park enthusiast, skier, and avid roadtripper. I'm lucky to have lived in 6 different states and visited 44 of them, but these days you'll find me in Salt Lake City, Utah.

How do you detect fraudulent credit card transactions when 99.8% of transactions aren't fraud? This page shows how I approach complex predictive modeling on an open dataset, specifically supervised machine learning on tabular data. My goal is for models to be transparent and easy to understand while maintaining strong performance.
