About Me
Aspiring Machine Learning Professional | Leveraging Diverse Experience in Service and Travel


I'm a passionate student currently immersed in the world of Machine Learning, excited to apply my unique blend of skills and experiences to this cutting-edge field. My background in the service industry has honed my ability to work efficiently in fast-paced environments, communicate effectively with diverse groups, and solve problems creatively - all skills I believe will translate well to the tech world.
My time as an Au Pair and extensive travel experiences have broadened my perspective, teaching me adaptability, cultural sensitivity, and the value of continuous learning. These qualities, combined with my strong foundation in psychology, give me a unique lens through which to approach Machine Learning challenges, particularly in areas like user behavior prediction and human-computer interaction.
As I navigate my transition into the tech industry, I'm eager to connect with professionals in Machine Learning and related fields. I'm particularly interested in opportunities that blend my people-centric background with innovative ML applications, such as:
I'm open to internships, entry-level positions, or collaborative projects that will allow me to apply my coursework in real-world scenarios. Let's connect if you're working on exciting ML projects or if you have advice for someone starting their journey in this field!

Fairytale Character Dating Website
Aug 2024 - Aug 2024

This project was created for Atlas School. The goal was to put the full-stack skills we recently learned to the test. We were given a theme of "Folklore and Fairytales." With this, my partners and I decided to create a website that mimicked a dating website. We added ten different fairytale characters, with which users could either "heart" (like) or "X" (dislike). In the backend JavaScript, the characters were randomized so that each user sees them in a different order. Once a person "matches" with a character, they are then prompted with the option to chat with the character. Here's where my portion of the project came into play. I implemented an AI chat box, using Claude AI through Amazon Bedrock. Using JavaScript, I provided the interface with descriptions of each character so that it knew the correct way to respond, including but not limited to the length of words to respond with.
