Hi! I’m Bhavik Chopra, a Data Scientist with 3.5+ years of experience solving real-world problems in transit, fintech, and AI-powered automation. From deploying ML models that improve transit for 6M+ daily MTA riders to building LLM-based tools that streamline financial workflows, I’ve consistently focused on blending technical depth with business impact. Beyond work, I’m deeply passionate about tech community building and mentorship. As an Organizer at Google Developer Group (GDG) NYC, I love creating spaces where like-minded folks can connect, explore cutting-edge AI trends, and grow together through hands-on learning, events, and open conversations. Whether it’s hosting hackathons or engaging in meetups, I genuinely enjoy fostering communities that support curiosity and collaboration. With a strong foundation in Python, ML, NLP, cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure), and MLOps practices, I’m here to help you: - Break into data science or ML roles - Transition from analyst to DS/ML positions - Improve your portfolio and interview performance - Understand how to apply ML in practical domains like finance, transit, or AI products Whether you're just starting out or looking to level up your career, I’d love to support your journey and share what I’ve learned. Let’s build something impactful together 🚀
