About me

Hi there! I'm Suvrat Jain, a year old data scientist with a strong background in machine learning, data analytics, and software development. I'm a problem solver at heart and my passion for data science stems from the desire to use technology to tackle real-world challenges.

I hold a Master's degree (M.Sc.) in Data Science from Rochester Institute of Technology, NY and I'm always looking for new and exciting ways to grow my skills and contribute to the field.

I fell in love with the world of code at the young age of 17 and my fascination with technology has only grown stronger since then. With a creative mind and a love for finding patterns in data, data science was the natural next step for me.

I've worked on a variety of projects that showcase my skills in machine learning, computer vision, data analytics, and software development, and I'm always eager to take on new challenges and push the boundaries of what's possible. Some of these projects can be found here.

My 5 year goal is, to successfully marry...my love for building delightful websites and the knack for solving problems using data, to birth a data-driven product that helps in the greater good of the community.

I am constantly looking to enhance my skill set and work on new & exciting projects, and have a track record of being a reliable asset to both - myself & the organization I work with.

🙋🏻‍♂️If you are a company/organization looking to hire an enthusiastic individual for an exciting job opportunity, to contribute to your rapid growth, feel free to reach out to me via LinkedIn.
👋🏻Or if you want to drop a hi or brainstorm something that interests you about music, universe, data, or anything in between, feel free to reach out to me here. Check out my resume!
