I am familiar with Linear algebra and at most average understanding of graph theory. I know there is lot more math to cover for ML but I find it overwhelming to

  All you need for introductory machine learning is multivariable calculus (for some simple optimization stuff), linear algebra, and probability. If you don't know probability, here's a good course: https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-041-probabilistic-systems-analysis-and-applied-probability-fall-2010/ https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-compu.... Once you feel comfortable with those, you'll be more than ready to tackle 6.867: https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-867-machine-learning-fall-2006/ https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-compu....

  In its current state, even cutting-edge machine learning is pretty accessible if you have a good understanding of linear algebra and calculus. If you want to do have a deeper understanding of machine learning then vector calculus, tensors, graph theory, etc. can only help you.
