Hello, I'm Pranav

I'm an Artificial Intelligence student with a passion for solving complex problems through data-driven approaches. My journey in tech began with a curiosity about how machines can learn and make decisions, which led me to pursue a degree in AI with a minor in Data Science at Illinois Institute of Technology.

My expertise spans machine learning, data science, and software development. I've worked on projects ranging from sports prediction models to lead contamination visualization systems, always focusing on creating solutions that have real-world impact.

As a Teaching Assistant for computer science courses, I've developed strong communication skills and a deeper understanding of programming concepts. I'm constantly learning and exploring new technologies to expand my skill set and stay at the forefront of AI innovation.

I'm looking for opportunities to apply my skills in AI and data science to challenging problems that can make a difference in people's lives.
