ABOUT ME
Python, Data Science, Deep Learning
Python, Data Science, Deep Learning

I've been writing software for almost 12 years, mostly Python apps to solve problems in Healthcare, Retail, and Recruiting. As well as being a python code mentor, my main area of expertise is backend web development. I'm also at ease with various data-related topics including machine learning, deep learning, and computer vision.

Was very professional! Quickly found the problems in my code and even offered advice for better programming. He was able to refer me to a great tutorial on a subject that he was not familiar with. 2 thumbs up!

Amazing mentor, he is an expert at Javascript and Python and is good at explaining. He quickly identified the best possible route to accomplish my desired functionality and then proceeded to type the code flawlessly. The issue was resolved in less time than expected and with minimal bugs /typos. And it works exactly the way I wanted it to. Very satisfied with his work! Cannot recommend him enough!
