What I'm looking for

I am seeking entry-level data science or machine learning roles where I can apply predictive modeling, deployment skills, and mentorship within collaborative teams focused on measurable impact and professional growth.

I am an aspiring data scientist and machine learning enthusiast pursuing a Bachelor of Computer Science, with hands-on experience building predictive models, dashboards, and real-time detection systems. I focus on turning data into actionable insights using Python, R, Scikit-learn, PyTorch, and TensorFlow.

My projects include an Apple product price prediction model with 92% accuracy, a currency-pair forecasting tool with an R² of 0.80 projecting up to 10 years, six ML projects that improved model accuracy up to 60%, and a YOLOv8 vehicle detection deployment achieving 85% real-time accuracy. During an internship at NITDA I led data preprocessing and feature engineering across multiple datasets, collaborated on Python-based ML projects, and mentored junior team members while coordinating campus service initiatives.
