I was pretty deep into drugs at 21, watched my longest standing friendship pass by from an overdose, and was spiraling out of control. My parents put me in rehab, moved home, and started self teaching computer science from C to python at 22. Landed my first internship gig at 23 after showcasing a few of my self directed projects from web scraping large amounts of data to power a web app to computer vision and I am now a lead data scientist at 27.
