Author, Data Mentor, Consultant, and Entrepreneur

About

I'm a data scientist and analytics consultant with a background in engineering and management. After my PhD in Machine Learning, I worked as a researcher in one of the top technical universities, Georgia Tech. Later on, I shifted to the private sector, eventually getting recruited by Microsoft as a Program manager.Throughout my career I have worked in various data-driven startups, developing multiple kinds of data products. Also, I have authored various books on data science and A.I. and coded a series of programs in these fields, and on cryptography. I have a solid understanding of machine learning, data engineering, and recommender systems, among other topics in the data science domain.A self-sufficient professional, I'm also a good team player, particularly keen on mentoring, and enthusiastic about expanding my knowledge and know-how. These days, I am a mentor at GrowthMentor & MentorCruise and a consultant at GLG.

Author

In an effort to distill my experience in the data world, and help others navigate it, I have authored eight (8) non-fiction books, mostly technical. The last book is less technical and geared towards businesspeople. You can find them at the Technics Publications website.

You can view my latest book, Question-driven Data Projects here

Apart from books, I've also developed a video course on data work and its relationship to business. You can find more about it at the dedicated mini-site.
