Starting from several years of cross-cultural studies of cultural factors of economic and political behavior of people, I dived deeper in the assessment of performance of talent development programs in both business and educational domains. Later on, I served as a account manager to the relocation company and since then been deeply exposed to the international community, working with clients and peers from 30+ countries. Then, I mastered the amazing and complex world of public relations. In parallel, I have been working on my PhD, exploring the emerging field of Socially Responsible Design and its best practices and discovered how powerful AI is, especially when it comes to finding the solutions of wicked problems humanity is currently facing. This all led me to where I currently am: mastering my Data Science skills to apply AI and ML to make this world a better place. Check out some projects in Python and R I've completed to prove that I am serious about that.
