Profile
A Statistics and Data Analysis Engineer seeking always to advance and promote his knowledge and career
in Data Science for Machine Learning (Structured Data), Time Series and NLP classification with R
programming.
My early beginnings included Statistics and Computer Science background along with a hard-preparatory
studies in Mathematics and Physics, contributed all positively to a solid thinking and resolving problems
approach.
I have gained a prestigious knowledge through my work, and I never missed to be up to date in everything
related to machine learning techniques, that's why I always continue to learn by working on real projects
on DS platform like Zindi, working in a Freelance experience and gaining certificates from the most
prestigious partners with MIT X Courses, Udacity, Coursera, Stanford Online and edX.
