Summary
I am a motivated and versatile individual with a background as a basketball player and musician, which has taught me discipline, creativity, and how to work well on a team.

I recently earned the Google Cybersecurity Certificate and the Codecademy AI/ML Engineering Certificate, and I am dedicated to improving myself every day both in my professional personal life. I enjoy exploring new challenges, learning quickly, and applying my analytical and technical skills to solve real-world problems.
