Sean McHale Overview

MSCS Student at Georgia Institute of Technology

I am currently a MSCS student at Georgia Institute of Technology graduating in December 2024. I did my undergraduate at Vanderbilt University in Computer Science and Applied Mathematics.

Experience

Most of my projects are in the realm of web development, data science, and machine learning. I am always looking for new projects to work on and new technologies to learn.

Recent Work

In my most recent role as the Founding Engineer at Tacit, a Vanderbilt student-based AI startup, I led the development of an MVP for a qualitative data collection platform. This platform facilitated one-on-one, scalable conversations between participants and an AI assistant. Think of a survey, but instead of simple responses, participants engage in conversations with an AI assistant where deeper insights and details are shared. Key ideas are tracked and reintroduced to other users for validation. All conversation and idea data is processed and displayed for easy exploration.

Although the project was eventually suspended, the experience gave me invaluable lessons in building AI-driven products from the ground up, AGILE development, and managing real-time updates on a live product.
