    I have seven years experience solving complex data problems by quickly mastering the right tools for each project. My business philosophy is to provide solutions that generate value for the client long after I deliver them. I'm constantly undergoing rigorous study to better understand and integrate evolving technologies to offer more comprehensive support to my clients. I can help implement: - various types of automation, including quality assurance automation - certain cloud solutions with GCP, AWS, and Microsoft AzureML - data transformations - machine learning models - dashboards - command-line interfaces - financial analyses - spreadsheet solutions (Google Sheets and Excel) - various types of interactive visualizations - software modules (in particular, I'm currently learning to build Python modules in Rust for faster performance) I have formal training as an engineer up to the Master's level. I also have training from past full-time roles as research engineer and data analyst. I attribute much of my current skills to ongoing self-study using online resources such as Packt and O'Reilly technology and business training. As a research engineer, I developed experimental machine learning models with Python and wrote corresponding technical reports. These efforts were also the subject of my graduate work. As a data analyst, I collected and analyzed data from solar energy infrastructure projects and conducted external market research to determine future project viability in different regions. Since joining Upwork, I have assisted clients with various ML and data engineering tasks. As mentioned earlier, I am currently training to be a full-stack solutions architect with both coding and strategic planning offerings.
