About Us:
Hi everyone and welcome to the ML Math Community! We look forward to exploring the world of mathematics together and diving deep into the math that drives the creation of machine learning and deep learning algorithms. Math is a fundamental component of AI and LLMs. We welcome all skill levels to our page and invite you to reach out if you have any questions or a specific topic you'd like us to cover. Happy learning :)
I'm from Canada and I completed my dual undergraduate degree at The University of Western Ontario and Ivey Business School in 2022. I completed an Honours Specialization in Applied Mathematics and an Honours in Business Administration. In 2024 I graduated with a Master of Science in Data Science with a Specialization in Machine Learning from Eastern University in the USA. I have always had a strong passion of math and I'm excited to share it with you! In my spare time I love to paint, play sports and explore the outdoors.
I am a Masters student studying computer science at North Carolina State University. I completed my Bachelors degree from Vellore Institute of Technology in India. I am interested in machine learning research and development. I am enthusiastic in playing a part in the ML Math subcommunity here.
