Data Scientist. Indie Hacker. Occasional blogger.

For the last four years, I have been working as a data scientist/data analyst for small and big companies. Before that, I was a Physics student trying to understand how to compute the Lagrangian of things.

In between I’ve always been curious about creating simple yet useful software. Most of those projects were not useful and are now in the trunk of dead projects.

I’m also the creator of datasciencetrivia.com. Perhaps my most successful experiment so far with more than 370 happy customers.

And as far as I know, I created the trend “How would I learn X (if I have to start over)”. In 2020 I wrote a blog post on how would I learn Data Science (if I have to start over). Turns out a lot of people love it and got more than 200k Medium views.

Right now I’m trying to get more into Reinforcement Learning. The Hugging Face course is a great intro if you want to check it out. In the background, I’m always thinking about what idea to next and how to make it fun.

I love to watch stand-ups and sitcoms (I'll be linking my favorites here soon). It would be cool to write comedy someday.

And last but not least. Here is a picture of my dog who I love a lot.
