As a data scientist, I love coding and solving problems, particularly in the areas of machine learning and statistical modeling. In my previous roles, I wrote software tools for data mining and extracting business insights that added significant value to the companies. My work experience complements the theoretical foundations that I gained in school, as well as what I continually learn through MOOCs and technical books I read in my spare time. I'm very excited about the recent advancements in deep learning, and in my next role, I'd love to develop powerful AI-based products that can help solve difficult problems.
