about me
I am a final-semester Bachelor of Science student majoring in Computer Science and Psychology. I have a deep interest in mathematics, which I find to be the backbone of Machine Learning. My ambitions and career goals are to enter the field of Machine Learning and Software Development where I can use the hard skills obtained from my Computer Science major, and the soft skills developed from my Psychology major. Outside of my tertiary education, I enjoy playing tennis, baking and spending time with those I care about.
