FAQ
Commonly Asked Questions
A few answers about who I am, what I do, and the work behind the projects.
-
1. How do you pronounce your name?
RAH-jesh NUN-dih-PAH-tee
-
2. What's your educational background?
I studied biology at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, where I was a James H. & Minnie M. Edmonds Endowed Scholar. To better understand the technologies shaping the future of healthcare delivery, I earned a Master of Healthcare Innovation at Arizona State University, a leadership program focused on the science of innovation and leading change within organizations. The program included designing, testing, and implementing new processes and products. I then pursued a Master of Engineering in AI & Machine Learning at George Washington University to develop and deploy intelligent systems.

3. Did you do a thesis or a capstone?
I completed a three-person capstone, "Multi-Task Review Triage Classification", which used a fine-tuned BERT model to triage roughly 12,000 Uber reviews. I led the model evaluation, assessing precision, recall, per-class and weighted F1 scores, confusion matrices, and urgency MAE across multiple model variants.

4. Do you still use your biology background?
Very little, although there is an interesting connection between fraud detection and outbreak investigations. Tracing Salmonella cases back to a common supplier follows a similar logic to identifying a cluster of anomalous outcomes and tracing them through a network until the original point of contact is discovered. Beyond that, I focus on the AI industry more broadly rather than limiting myself to healthcare or computational biology.
-
5. When do you graduate?
I graduated in May 2026.
-
6. Are you open to working remotely, in-person, or in a hybrid format?
I am open to any format and willing to relocate.

7. Do you require visa sponsorship?
As a US Citizen, I do not require visa sponsorship now or in the future.
