I'm a Muslim self-taught bioinformatician, data scientist, and scientific illustrator. My go-to programming language is Python, but I dabble in R too. I studied data science mostly through DataScience alongside various other resources. I have basic knowledge of front-end development with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. I also self-studied art and illustration to make scientific visualizations. I enjoy taking complicated or different scientific concepts and presenting them in a visually pleasing and simple-to-understand manner. Another on-going project is making trading cards of interesting mushroom species. When I am not studying or working, I have a host of other hobbies - I like reading about cool animals and microorganisms, reading books, maintaining a blog (I say maintaining - more like occasionally post to it 😜), writing non-blog content... I also do photography and digital painting. Above all, I love hanging out in nature and chasing insects with my camera 😁
