About Christian


Bio

Machine Learning, Data Science, and Natural Language Processing (NLP) are incredibly useful skills. With them I have improved Amazon’s Alexa personal assistant; automated the learning of words' internal structure; and bootstrapped automatic speech recognition systems in multiple languages. Let me help you master machine learning so that you too can accomplish amazing things.

Machine Learning, Data Science, and Natural Language Processing (NLP) are incredibly useful skills. With them I have improved Amazon’s Alexa personal assistant; automated the learning of words' internal structure; and bootstrapped automatic speech recognition systems in multiple languages. Let me help you master machine learning so that you too can accomplish amazing things.

During my 2000+ hours of tutoring I have:

- Helped students successfully complete machine learning and data science courses;
- Coached professionals through a career change from software engineer to machine learning engineer; and
- Taught a wide range of topics in artificial intelligence and computer science.

I have 10 years of industry experience working as a Machine Learning Scientist specializing in Natural Language Processing and Speech Recognition. Five of those years I worked at Amazon improving the Alexa personal assistant. During the 2000’s I was a graduate student at Carnegie Mellon University and a postdoc at Oregon Health & Science University working in Natural Language Processing. I completed my Bachelor’s in Computer Science, with minors in Math and Physics, from Brigham Young University in 2000.

While the technical aspects of the algorithms I developed in academia and industry are interesting, I enjoy teaching these skills to others at least as much as practicing them myself. Whether you need to internalize the fundamentals of machine learning, improve your understanding of computer science for a class at school, or prepare for an industry interview, please consider me as your tutor and coach!

A very knowledgeable and amazing tutor.

I'm very lucky to have had Christian as my tutor last week. He knew exactly what he was doing, he was very confident and quick with helping me create a sentiment classification model using random forest on a very large dataset. It was up and running within in the hour and then went the extra distance to make sure fine tuning the parameters were good to go. I hope to connect with Christian again soon on future projects. He is my go-to for training/testing models and machine learning!

Great teacher!!

Christian has been helping my son with his Data Science projects, an advanced Statistics class and coding projects for a few months now. He is an excellent teacher who is very knowledgeable, patient and a great resource to learn from. My son loves working with Christian and I am so thankful for his help and guidance!

knowledgeable and thorough

Christian is helping my son with an advanced NLP project. He is very organized and asked for the details beforehand so he could come prepared for the lesson. Highly professional, knowledgeable, and kind tutor. I highly recommend him!

Extremely helpful and knowledgeable

I met with Christian to help prepare for a software engineering interview. He was super helpful in helping me narrow down what to focus on in my prep work which gave me a great deal of confidence going into the interview process. Christian has a depth of technical knowledge, and a wealth of industry experience that helped me out a great deal even though we only met for a single session. I'd highly recommend him as a tutor / resource for anyone looking for help or guidance in their coding skills, or career trajectory. Thanks Christian!

Knowledgeable and professional

"Christian has been an invaluable resource as I learn the fundamentals of machine learning and deep learning. His guidance has been especially helpful in effectively communicating project details and insights.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

I was stuck on a programming assignment for two days . After meeting with christian , not only did he help me edit and understand the flaws in my code, but after our meeting I was able to edit another code I did to make it run flawlessly ! Thank you so much !

Knowledgeable and thorough

We worked on functions on Python requiring simple coding but lots of it. Christian was thorough, deliberate, professional. At the same time, the trade-off was the amount of time it took to go through each line. It could also be an attribute of my novice level in Python. Overall, I recommend Christian and would work with him again.

Broad and deep research knowledge uncovering new opportunities

I had some specific questions into areas of research that are probably not on the radar screen of many researchers, but Christian is able to give me the direction that i needed. I am happy with the depth of his answers, ability to summarize difficult/broad topics, and his exceptional listening skills.

Saved my life and sanity

Christian is hands down amazing. I had 2 lessons with Christian-- both times he saved my life. During the first lesson we covered a specific task that I had no idea how to finish. He helped me finish it, giving an in-depth explanation of everything along the way, and we still had time to cover more material. The second time was more of a review session. During that, he helped cover new topics (that were never introduced in lecture) and check my understanding of the other topics. I can't say enough good things about Christian. I absolutely recommend him.

Knowledgeable and patient

Christian is one of the best tutors I have ever worked with and he is incredibly helpful, kind, patient, and knowledgeable. He went out of his way to find and make the time to help me. I would recommend him to any other students looking for a tutor in computer science.
