A Little About Me
I'm currently pursuing my Master's in Information Technology and Web Science (ITWS) with a focus on software engineering. I'm passionate about meeting new people and engaging in meaningful conversations about technology and innovation.
Data science fascinates me, and I love applying it to personal projects that solve real-world problems. Check out my Artist2Vec project below to see how I've combined machine learning with music recommendation systems.
Community building is something I deeply value. I'm an active member of both the Phoenixville Chess Club and RPI Chess Club, and I've been instrumental in growing the developer community at RPI through GDGC@RPI initiatives.
