I completed my Master's degree in Data Science at Columbia University in 2023, where I developed a keen interest in machine learning research. I have a robust foundation in data science and a passion for leveraging machine learning to solve complex problems. With extensive experience in the field, I've contributed to various data science projects, including developing machine learning pipelines for the drug discovery process and utilizing large language models for natural language processing tasks. I joined the Map of Life Rapid Assessment team as a Deep Learning Software Engineer. I am very excited to develop machine learning solutions to facilitate biodiversity assessments in rainforests.
