I am currently a master student at UCSD studying Computer Science and Machine Learning.
Previously I was a data scientist at Microsoft Research. Before Microsoft acquired the previous company I was working for, SwiftKey, I was a software engineer in the Data Insights team.
For my undergrads I studied Electronic Engineering at University College London and worked as a part-time software engineer for Cisco Systems following a one year-long internship that I did with them in Silicon Valley.
I am passionate about startups, I have founded Play Palo Alto, a social startup that won the first prize at the Palo Alto App Challenge 2014.
I am also passionate about AI; I studied Supervised and Reinforcement Learning Master courses during my Undergrad at UCL and my thesis was focused on pattern recognition.
I am seeing myself in future mostly going forward with my passion for Artificial Intellingence.
I truly enjoy taking new challenges and getting out of my comfort zone in order to learn.
