<aside> 👋 I'm a recent University of Waterloo grad whose interest is in the field of data science. For the past few years, I have been participating in data science and related bootcamps, always revising and learning different concepts, and now I am looking to get into the industry to apply my skills and knowledge to the real world. On the side, I sometimes learn React and try making different web apps.
