Hello, I’m Mohammad!
As a data-driven leader and lifelong learner, I’m on a journey to bridge the gap between data science and business strategy, with a goal to shape the future of data-driven decision-making.
My passion for uncovering insights and telling compelling stories through data is matched by my love for leadership.
Since starting as a Scrum Master, I’ve realized that helping teams achieve their best drives me just as much as analyzing data trends.
As I advance in my career, I’m focused on building the skills further combining my expertise in Agile, data science, and business acumen to lead impactful projects.
I have a unique background that combines technical depth in computer science with strategic insight.
This blend allows me to dive deep into data exploration while staying connected to the bigger picture, making data accessible, actionable, and meaningful for decision-makers.
My commitment to Agile methodologies means I’m continually refining processes to make data science workflows as dynamic as they are impactful.
Beyond my professional pursuits, I’m a relentless book collector, a nature enthusiast, and a curious explorer of philosophy, from Stoicism to Minimalism.
I also see beauty in data and enjoy the thrill of discovering hidden patterns and trends.
As a natural organizer, I love structure but also value creativity—qualities I’m hoping to expand into new hobbies like videography and filmography.
I have worked on wide range of projects in ML and DL throughout my academic and professional career. I have experience using TensorFlow, PyTorch, and Keras.
Big Data is shaping the world around us. With over three years experience, I have been disseminating, extracting, and manipulating various forms of data.
Each visualization must be tailored specifically to its users and therein lies my speciality. I have extensive experience with Visualization tools; Microsoft Power BI, Google Data Studio, and SAP.
Natural Language Processing is a newfound interest.
