I have always loved problem-solving, but I never thought it would lead me to a career in Computer Science. When I was a young child, I enjoyed everything however I really enjoyed solving challenging problems. I enjoyed solving logical problems like math questions or riddles, and as I got older I always looked for new challenges, which is when I encountered programming. I started off by building a website at the age of 11, and then proceeded to venture into software engineering through Python and SQL. I proceeded to specialize further into data science and machine learning. I completed a lot of small projects along the way (which can be checked out on my github), which helped me learn how to apply my knowledge in real life scenarios. I also dabbled a bit in app development in which I contributed significantly to building an app for my business that I cofounded (Quickbites). This not only improved my technical skills but also gave me valuable insights into the business and operational aspects of startups. In addition to my startup, I also ran an e-commerce business which taught me a lot about customer service and sales.My experience, matched with my technical skills, makes me an outstanding candidate for tackling a variety of challenges in technology and business.Portfolio : github.com/shahrs5/
