About me

I’m also pursuing my master’s degree in data science at the University at Buffalo, where I’ve gained hands-on experience in Python programming, data structures and algorithms, natural language processing, and deep learning. I’m passionate about using these skills to analyze data, create predictive models, and solve real-world problems. I’m open to collaborations and excited to explore opportunities in the field of data-driven innovation.

As a graduate research assistant at Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, I’m exploring diverse machine learning projects underpinning drug discovery and development. Leveraging advanced techniques in predictive modeling, data analysis, and network analysis, I’m delving into projects aiming to contribute to innovative solutions in the pharmaceutical domain under guidance of Dr. Ram Samudrala.

Let’s connect to exchange ideas and insights.
