Background

About Dulitha Jayakodige

HIGHLIGHTS- Graduate research assistant with 6 years of experience in cleaning, analyzing, and visualizing data- 2 years experience in developing machine learning models to fit data from physics experiments- 2 years experience in building Monte Carlo Simulations and data collection software- Self-learned data scientist with excellent analytical and problem-solving skills.I was born in Sri Lanka and migrated to the USA for higher studies. I am pursuing a Ph.D. in theoretical nuclear Physics at Hampton University, VA, and I work as a research assistant at Jefferson Lab, VA. I developed a novel model of pion nucleon scattering that better fits experimental data. I am an expert in Python (NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, Seaborn, Plotly SciKit-Learn, iminuit, TensorFlow), Mathematica, MATLAB, and SQL.I am a physicist/data scientist skilled in data wrangling, data analysis, data visualization, and machine learning. I enjoy collaborating with multi-disciplinary teams and I adapt quickly to new challenges and succeed in new environments. I am a critical thinker who pays attention to detail and I am curious to learn new technologies.
