About Me

The study of Computer & Mathematical Sciences has intrigued me for many years. Computers and their immense diversity have interested me thoroughly. In particular: Artificial Intelligence & Data Science. These have stretched my knowledge of computers and I always strive to expand my knowledge of these topics further. I have worked on multiple projects in Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Automation & posses the ability to successfully implement research papers. I'm passionate about applying Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Data Science in real world scenarios across Software, Transportation, Logistics & Supply Chain and Healthcare domains at some of the largest players across the globe. SKilled in Computer Vision, NLP & Classical Machine Learning Techniques! I strongly believe that Data, when glued with Mathematics and best suitable Machine Learning & Deep Learning algorithms posses the key to solve even the hardest of the problems in quick time.
