Alexei Fedkin

After almost 20 years of C modeling for research in Geosciences, I developed a passion for data wrangling, machine learning models and statistical analysis, which made me shift my career towards data science and analytics. As a current student in Master of Science in Data Science program, I am skilled in managing SQL databases, data exploratory analysis and predictive modeling with Python and R. I am looking forward to applying my skills in real-world settings.

Research Scientist in Cosmochemistry - The University of Chicago, Department of Geophysical Sciences

(2001-01 - 2015-12)

• Computed simultaneous radioactive decay and condensation in supernova ejecta using an interface between nuclear reaction networks and the equilibrium condensation software; published a study that explained occurrence of presolar (Fe,Ni) metal in meteorites
• Developed a C program of condensation in dust-enriched systems to find physicochemical conditions for chondrule formation
