About Me
Doctor of Mathematical Statistics with a specialty in Machine Learning, with more than 10 years of research and teaching experience. I catch on quickly and I’m very eager to learn. I am self motivated and enjoy overcoming challenges. I do enjoy working with a focused and creative team to meet goals and deadlines. I am delighted to read and interpret science with the purpose of communicating it to the public, management or experts. I spend most of my free time with my two children and my wife I enjoy playing board games and chess. I don’t miss the chance to meet friends and do social activities.
