Summary

I'm a Computer and Data Scientist, Software Developer, Teacher, and Technology geek!! My interests include software development, Data Science, Analytics, and Machine Learning. I am an engineer with research experience in the computer science field in both; academia and industry. My academic background, business knowledge, and industry experiences provided me with the credentials needed to thrive as an excellent software developer.

I’ve always enjoyed the challenge of learning new concepts and solving problems. Moreover, I have a solid technical background with a strong interest in software development, especially Python and R programming languages. My expertise includes project design and management, data analysis and interpretation, and the development and implementation of research tools. I enjoy generating new ideas and devising feasible solutions to broadly relevant problems.

I built a reputation for transparency throughout my career, seeking ways to be more efficient, contain costs, and provide high-quality work. My colleagues would describe me as a driven, resourceful individual who maintains a positive, proactive attitude when faced with adversity. Currently, I’m seeking opportunities that will allow me to develop and promote Open Source projects and collaborate with other tech enthusiasts.
