About Me
I'm Shelton — a sophomore CS student at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln who loves turning data and code into useful tools. I build end-to-end projects (Java backends, Python ML, SQL) and explain results clearly with tests and visuals. I'm looking for internships where I can ship real features, learn fast, and contribute from day one.

Projects
NFL QB Touchdown Predictor
Built an NFL QB Touchdown Predictor that estimates the chance a quarterback throws a TD in a game. The model uses XGBoost trained on 2,500+ games with 15 recent-form and context features, achieving AUC 0.88 with calibrated probabilities. I added SHAP so users can see which factors drive each prediction. It's deployed as a simple Streamlit app—upload a CSV and get instant, explainable results.
Invoice Management System
Java + MySQL app that ingests invoices via JDBC, generates summary/detail reports, and is verified with JUnit tests. Includes ER diagram and sample outputs.
Knight's Tour Solver
Python tool that solves knight's tour puzzles using backtracking recursion. Visualizes every move as the knight covers the entire board without repeating squares.
Experience
Lead Installer
Thrasher Concrete Summer 2024I worked hands-on fixing real homes with foundation issues. I led a team of 4 people, making sure everything was safe and up to standard. The job taught me responsibility, teamwork, and how to stay calm when things get tough.
Math Tutor
Dominion College, Zimbabwe 2022–2023I helped high school students understand math better by breaking it down in simple ways. Almost all my students passed — some with flying colors. It made me realize how much I enjoy helping others learn.
