Master's Student at Purdue University majoring in AI/ML

Alex D.

I am currently in the process of studying for my Master's Degree in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning at Purdue University. My studies are primarily focused on the world of data science, deep neural networks, natural language processing, and algorithms.

I have always been a good student in Mathematics and Physics. My most proficient coding languages are Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Java, SQL and some HTML and CSS. I have a very broad tech-stack for both front-end and backend development. I have recently been more into the Data Science sector since that relates more with what I am currently studying. I also take a lot of interest in exploring other technologies that I like to learn about.

In High School I was the Vice President of our Computer Science Honors Society where my main job was make plans and reach out for community service that specifically teaches young kids about technology. For multiple years I participated in helping teaching kids more about technology and telling them about our high schools computer science program. My big project in my Senior year was to make our own school outreach event for middle schoolers. I personally made all of the activities for the event too help exercise critical thinking, problem solving, and creativity on tech focused activities.

I also have a background in teaching martial arts. For 4 years, I was a Taekwondo Certified Instructor, a 4th degree black belt, and was a National Title Holder. As an instructor, I helped teach people of all ages and skill levels, and provided personalized private lessons. I have gained a lot of experience from this in understanding students, motivating them, having patience, and the adaptability to teach them.
