Data Scientist @ NASA & AI/ML Optimist

I look forward to attending my first AIAA Aviation conference next week. I will also be a panelist for "Generative AI in Defense: is ChatGPT good enough for Aviation?" My instinct was to say-- it's too early in my career; I'm not ready. My passion for AI/ML is in data engineering, ensuring the ethical use of data collection, and working to reduce bias in AI/ML models. My work with NASA has been creating applications that streamline and optimize how we capture data. I wasn't sure I fit. I messaged my mentor, whose immediate response was, "Do it, Do it, Do it, You'll be great!"  Sometimes, we all face places where we don't think we know enough- next time you face this, I encourage you reach out to someone you respect for a second opinion. I'm grateful to have strong mentors at NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration who encourage me to push myself and are my biggest cheerleaders! 🚀 #ascendspace #aeronautics #nasa #AIAAAVIATION! https://www.ascend.events/ (https://lnkd.in/gXxwDkG6)
