If you are seeing this page, then it means you are probably reviewing my application for a Data Scientist or Machine Learning Engineer. In case you want a deeper understanding of who I am as a person, I attached a few tidbits about my favourite music, books, movies, and video games.

Before we get into the faves, let me tell you about the 3 pillars of my life

Sports

Emotion and competition is what draws me to sports. I mainly follow football (passion), basketball (intensity), and F1 (human-machine collaboration)

Here's a small video I made a while back:

Music

Expression of emotion. Often you will hear people say "words cannot describe what I am feeling", that is what music can do. I listen to almost everything on this earth. If you enjoy music too here's my annual playlist: RL Vibe '23

Academics

Well where did studies come into all of this. Knowledge is the distillation of expression and gives one a competitive advantage in the world. I don't mean math or history but study of anything can "connect the dots" for you later in life.

Now this is all well and good, but why am I telling you this when applying for a job. The answer is because the common thread that binds all 3 is data . I have done projects such as trying to predict the winner of European football leagues, or classify the genre of a piece of music.

Great! Now that we have the core stuff out of the way let's get to the fun stuff
