About

I have 2+ years of experience specializing in data analysis and machine learning. I bring advanced Python for software development, analysis, and visualization; a solid foundation in SQL; Bash/Shell and general CLI workflows; XML; and the Microsoft 365 suite. I also have hands-on experience with AWS storage, compute, and networking services including EC2, Lambda, S3, VPC, SNS, and SQS.

During my master’s program, I successfully balanced professional work, professional soccer commitments, and academic demands—honing time management, prioritization, and the ability to deliver under pressure.
