Kiersten Roth

Statistics and Data Science student at UCLA, minoring in Data Science Engineering and Bioinformatics.

I work across data engineering, software, and applied machine learning, usually on the part where a rough idea has to turn into something people can actually use. Recent work runs from supply-chain analysis in cell therapy to a sustainability discovery app and prototypes in health technology.

What I'm working on now

I'm a Data Science Intern at AstraZeneca, working with supply-chain data inside Cell Therapy Technical Operations, and a founding data and software engineering intern at Greenopia, where I build the data pipelines and tools behind a consumer app for finding sustainable businesses.

On campus I lead VEST at UCLA, which connects student builders with startups and investors, and I analyze data with the Data Science Union. Alongside that I keep a handful of research and side projects going in genomics, medical imaging, and sports.

Selected work

A few projects that show how I take something from raw data or a prototype to a working interface. Each page says plainly what I built and what the team built.

Data platform & app · Greenopia

Turning a messy business database into a usable app

I reworked a large, inconsistent database of businesses and built scraping and enrichment pipelines, then helped move clean records into the live mobile app through an ingestion API.

Hackathon prototype · LA Hacks 2026

Polaris, a hospital alert-routing prototype

A team project that routes hospital alerts to the right clinician using priority, proximity, availability, and workload. Built against mocked records as a prototype, not deployed clinical software.

Research prototype · Machine learning

Predicting statin toxicity, stratified by sex

A stacked ensemble trained on federal adverse-event reports to estimate statin risk in female patients, wrapped in a FastAPI and React interface. A research prototype, not a clinical recommendation tool.
