Mohan Sai
MS Data Science Student
I'm an MS Data Science student at the University of Delaware and a member of the Water Intelligence Lab, where I build the machine-learning pipelines and cyber-infrastructure behind the lab's water-modeling work. My work spans cloud ML pipelines for runoff prediction, coupling hydrologic and coastal models through standard model interfaces, a locally-hosted LLM assistant for the lab, and open data collection for coastal flood-risk research. I care about solid software engineering — CI/CD, reproducibility, and turning research code into reliable, usable tools.
Education
- MS Data Science, University of Delaware, 2025
Currently working on
- Nuisance Flooding Digital Twin
A high-resolution digital twin of Lewes, Delaware coupling urban drainage with surface topography to simulate sunny-day tidal flooding.
- Developing Engineering practices using Ecosystem Design Solutions (DEEDS)
DEEDS is a collaborative project that uses nature-based solutions, engineering, modeling, and community engagement to strengthen coastal resilience.
- U.S. Coastal Pump-Station Inventory
An open inventory of U.S. coastal pump stations across 55 cities for compound-flood-risk and energy-intensity analysis, aimed at a published dataset.
