After earning my PhD in Mathematics and teaching full time for three years as a Visiting Assistant Professor, I've successfully taught over 30 courses using innovative methods like active learning, mastery-based grading, and flipped classrooms. During my time in academia, I also authored or co-authored four papers in low-dimensional topology and received multiple student awards for my academic achievements.While I enjoyed teaching, I recognized the need for career flexibility to support my future goals. As a result, I began expanding my skill set in coding and data analysis. I've since developed proficiency in programming languages such as Python, C, SQL, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, and I'm eager to apply these skills in data-driven roles.Now, I am transitioning into data science, where my strong analytical skills, mathematical background, and experience solving complex problems will allow me to contribute meaningfully to data-driven projects and decision-making.
