OVERVIEW

I am Rizwan Karim Rafat, a passionate data science professional with a strong educational background, holding a Master of Data Science degree from Western Sydney University and a Bachelor's in Computer Science & Engineering from American International University-Bangladesh. Throughout my career, I've worked in various roles, including as an IT Support Specialist, Junior Data Analyst, and Web Application Developer. These positions have honed my skills in technical support, data analysis, and full-stack web development, giving me a well-rounded experience in solving real-world challenges.

At Geeks in Sydney, I initially provided hands-on IT support, assisting SMEs with systems and infrastructure management, troubleshooting technical issues, and ensuring seamless IT service delivery for applications like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. Later, I transitioned into a Data Analyst role, where I developed and implemented advanced analytics models to optimize pricing, promotion, and marketing strategies. Collaborating with data engineering teams, I ensured data accuracy through cleaning and transformation, and I translated complex insights into actionable recommendations for business stakeholders.

I have always been passionate about learning and applying advanced machine learning techniques. I've worked on projects that range from comparative analysis of C-VAE and C-GAN models for generating Japanese characters to predictive modeling of NSW school data using neural networks and support vector machines. Each project deepened my understanding of data science concepts and helped me explore different tools and methodologies for solving complex problems.

Outside of my professional life, I love doing street photography whenever I get the chance. It's my way to destress and capture the beauty of everyday life through my lens.
