Hi! I'm Maria. I'm a Data Science Master's student at Columbia University, New York. I'm an aspiring data scientist with a passion for solving business problems and acquiring the skill to communicate technical conclusions in simpler non-complex terms to stakeholders. I hold experience working as a full-stack Python developer during my tenure at Morgan Stanley where I honed my skills in Java, SQL, and Vue.js, and touched upon Jenkins and SonarQube. My education along with my experience and interest in data science has enabled me to attain a diversified set of additional skills like Data Analytics, Machine Learning, Statistical Inference, and Mathematical Modeling. I've been involved in projects concerning ML algorithms primarily and I strive for perfection and perform each task to the best of my ability. I am looking for opportunities and experiences that would help me develop my skills in Data Science and Machine Learning.
