Summary

I recently received my M.S. in Computer Science and Engineering from the honorable Santa Clara University where I also received my undergraduate degree in Computer Science. My further education, however, was an Artificial Intelligence Emphasis as this field is growing at such a fast pace, and will continue to remain relevant for years to come. I am also interested in what Quantum Computing has to offer down the road. I have experience in many different projects ranging from Data labeling and IMS streaming to CNN classification schemes and AWS NLP builds. I am excited to gain more experience in these fields.
