Michael Torres
I am currently exploring new career opportunities where I can apply my diverse educational background.
I hold degrees in Computer Science and Accounting, with double minors in Mathematics and Biology. My studies at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and Western Governors University have equipped me with a strong analytical foundation and a multidisciplinary perspective.
Using over 50,000 Amazon reviews, I conducted sentiment analysis in python using VADER (Valence Aware Dictionary and Entiment Reasoner) with the “bag of words” approach. With the Natural Language Toolkit (NLTK), VADER Sentiment Scoring was used to assign scores to the reviews. These reviews were then plotted to show the varying overall sentiment scores of 1-5 star reviews.

Learning Outcomes: Implemented machine learning techniques such as linear regression with gradient descent and ordinary least squares (OLS), and developed a Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) using scikitlearn to analyze and interpret data regarding wine quality. Employed analysis methods utilizing test and training data, examining critical components such as fixed acidity, citric acid, residual sugar, pH, and sulphates to accurately predict alcohol content in red wine.
Designed engaging and interactive sales dashboards, featuring hyperlinks to navigate between different tabs and highlighting key performance indicators (KPIs). Produced a range of dynamic charts and visuals, including a map chart, radar chart, line chart and doughnut chart to provide critical insights into a company’s strategic, financial, and operational performance
