Predictive analytics for city infrastructure, interdisciplinary research, data-driven decision-making, design thinking workshops, transitioning from mechanical engineering to data science, SQL/Python/Tableau/Power BI tips, Student leadership, urban mobility optimization, systems innovation, and the intersection of AI and societal impact.
Venkata Subbarao Mupparaju is a data analyst, researcher, and Stanford University-trained University Innovation Fellow who blends technical skills with a passion for community-focused innovation. With a B.E. in Mechanical Engineering from Vasireddy Venkatadri Institute of Technology (India, Class of 2023) and an M.S. in Computer Information Systems from Christian Brothers University (USA, Class of 2025), he works at the intersection of data science, intelligent systems, and real-world impact.
He is currently a Data Research Analyst at Community Dreams Foundation, where he supports data-driven nonprofit programs designed to uplift underserved communities. His work involves cleaning, analyzing, and visualizing large datasets to deliver actionable insights for civic and organizational decision-making.
Previously, as a Graduate Assistant at Christian Brothers University, Venkata built and maintained interactive Power BI dashboards to track KPIs related to student enrollment, IT support, and academic performance. He collaborated with academic and IT teams to automate reporting pipelines and ensure data integrity across systems.
He has also held fellowships with Start Co., where he analyzed city mobility data, and the Ford Urbanite Memphis City Challenge, where he led data cleaning and visualization efforts for transportation systems. His ability to communicate insights clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders has made him a valuable contributor in cross-functional environments.
Research & Projects
Venkata’s graduate capstone project, titled Data-Driven Urban Mobility, focused on forecasting traffic congestion in New York City using public datasets and LightGBM modeling. He developed an automated ETL pipeline and an interactive Power BI dashboard to inform urban planning decisions. The project offered actionable strategies to improve traffic flow and transit systems and reflected his deep interest in urban analytics and intelligent infrastructure.
His undergraduate research at VVIT culminated in a published paper on “MMC Al-6063 Reinforced with SiC”, where he explored the mechanical and microstructural behavior of advanced materials. This early experience in materials science built his foundation in experimental research and technical documentation.
