AMBUJ ARORA
I train machines to make them smarter than me. I fail continuously.
ABOUT ME
Glancing across the flood of online advertisements on Facebook, in July 2015, ‘Machine Learning’ (ML) caught my attention, and I was eager to learn more. Since then I've never looked back!
I am currently pursuing my Masters in CS from the University of Utah with a focus on ML and DL. Before starting my masters, I worked as a Sr. Data Scientist for two years at Algoscale Technologies. I also worked as a Deep Learning Intern at Intel Corporation in Summer 2020.
I always try to make a change in the world in any and every field possible. I have blended my CS skills with marketing, healthcare, finance, etc. to bring out the best of both worlds. Please look at my projects to learn more.
