About Me

As a self-proclaimed computer enthusiast, I've always been fascinated by the world of technology. From computer builds and repairs, to programming, to networking, or even the fascinating world of IoT. I've always been interested in learning more about the field of Computer Science. Presently, I am immersed in my undergraduate studies at Concordia University, pursuing a degree in Computer Engineering. My foundation in Computer Science Technology, acquired at Vanier College, serves as a robust precursor to my current academic pursuits. Currently, I am using the knowledge I've gained thus far to teach others to code, develop games, and create other software solutions. Of course, I'm always looking for new opportunities to learn and grow as a developer, engineer, and educator.

The gif would allow consultants to visualize the data in a more intuitive way, and it would allow them to evaluate the efficacy of the ML model used for the prediction portion. The project was developed in Python, using a variety of libraries such as Matplotlib, Pandas, and Plotly.

I'm seeking opportunities where I can learn to innovate

Computer Engineering is a field made for growth. It's a field I believe is founded on the idea of making things that solve problems for everyone. I'm looking for opportunities where I can learn to innovate and make things that will help people strive.
