OVERVIEW

Hi there! I'm a Master of Data Science student with a passion for leveraging technology to solve complex problems. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Engineering, which gave me a solid foundation in software engineering, programming languages, and algorithm design. I'm now expanding my skills to include data analysis, machine learning, and statistical modeling.

As a data science enthusiast, I'm constantly seeking out new challenges and opportunities to apply my knowledge. My long-term career goal is to work in a data-driven organization where I can collaborate with cross-functional teams to develop innovative solutions that drive business value. I'm particularly interested in projects related to predictive analytics, natural language processing, and deep learning.

In my free time, I'm passionate about capturing moments through street photography. It's a creative outlet that allows me to explore different perspectives and document the world around me. Additionally, I enjoy reading about the latest advancements in data science and attending tech events to stay up-to-date on emerging trends. I also love playing chess and spending quality time with my family and friends.
