What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role where I can leverage my data science skills to drive impactful solutions, collaborate with innovative teams, and grow in a supportive environment.

I am currently pursuing a Master's degree in Data Science at MISIS, Moscow, where I focus on machine learning, data analytics, and applied AI. My hands-on experience includes Python development, data extraction, and web scraping through freelance projects on platforms like Upwork and Fiverr. I am passionate about building intelligent, scalable solutions in AI, computer vision, and data-driven systems.

In my role as a Remote Python Developer at ScrapeLi, I designed and developed Python-based web applications using frameworks like Django. I created scalable backend systems for data extraction and built automation processes for efficient data processing. My experience also includes performing data analysis and visualization to derive insights that support decision-making.
