Skills: The Tools in My Arsenal
After diving into who I am, let's get into the business: what can I actually do? Built on a strong foundation of academic rigor and hands-on experience, my skill sets are diverse, versatile and adaptable.
About Me: A Story of Curiosity
My passion for Data Science comes from my curiosity in learning how different industries work which can be understood by listening to the stories in their data. I enjoy contributing to business decisions and my main strength lies in being able to bridge the gap of communicating business needs to the technical team. I believe in the 4H's for a successful life: Happy, Helpful, Humble and Hungry for knowledge."
When Complexity Meets Clarity
Imagine breaking down complex problem statements into smaller, manageable, executable tasks and compiling them into a final solution. That's my sweet spot. Whether it's cracking natural language processing puzzles or venturing into generative AI, my approach is anchored in breaking things down to their most basic truths and then building up on those.
