About

Data Science & Machine Learning | Saxophone Player | 50+ countries traveller I’ve been able to enrich my perspectives on data science with my global adventures! I’m excited about following my bliss, exploring my love of Machine Learning and Data Science and making a big, beautiful impact on this world! I’m fascinated with how we can use data to solve problems and bring values: from building a powerful referral system for customized fashion retail recommendation to applying NLP techniques in sentiment analysis to helping businesses understand reviews. I’m open to collaborations with tech companies, start-ups and other businesses that want to make time and money-saving choices without banging their head over thousands of ugly spreadsheets.
