Tell me something that's not on your resume.

One thing about me that isn't explicitly stated on my resume is my continuous learning and adaptation. As an Data Scientist, I'm constantly evolving trying new mathematics and statistic skills to improve each machine learning steps understanding. For instance, i am actually enhancing my understanding about stochastic processes like Gaussian process to improve Exaplainable AI in the models i develop

Outside of my professional accomplishments, I am deeply passionate about mentoring and helping individuals thrive in dynamic requirements. I have a side gig of private event management. In my free time I professionally do event management for close family and friends only which requires me to cater dynamically based on their needs which bring in a lot of strategic planning, streamline communications and timely delivery of a high quality experience.

I love spending my free time doing artwork. My most recent artwork has been to paint Napali coast and trying colored Mandala art. My interest in art has helped my creative flow and problem solving skills and it reflects in my innovative approaches to designing systems as well

I wrote the rules of World Dodgeball. I am the chair of the technical committee of the World Dodgeball Federation, which means I am running regular meetings to work on improving the rules of the game, mediating between different opinions and working and adapting to cultural differences from all over the world.  Having this position, means that I have to publicly support and carry decisions that I might have voted against as a committee member, but that I need to explain as if they were my own to members of the community. It also means taking in a lot of feedback, some more to the extreme, about how the rules should be.

I once set out to read the entire bible in one year. 

Scenario: I teach a youth class at my church on Sundays and one of the encouragements I share with my students is the importance of researching the text of the bible. I felt that I had to hold myself to a high standard and encourage my students by doing the same.

Task: Read the entire bible in one year, share my progress and experience with my students throughout the year.

Actions: Set goals of chapters to read and discuss with my students, shared my progress including my failings and plans to recover with the students. Invite them to come along with me on the journey.

Results: Where not every student decided to follow along and not every one that did was able to keep up. I had 3 that did follow along. We completed the bible in about 11 months and the relationship built endures till this day. It was a great leadership and team building accomplishment for me.

I can share couple of things on personal front.

To start with I am father of a seven year old daughter and love spending time and keeping pace with her curious questions. I am trained teacher in yoga and mindfulness through Art of Living. I did their advanced courses and practice breathing exercises regularly called "sudarshan kriya". This helps me keep my mind calm and focused and upto pace in daily rigor. It has also been a big help at times when I felt overwhelmed.

I had tried to start a business on my own. During the period, I was responsible for marketing and sales. Lots of things needed to be done on my own and lots of decisions needed to be made. Although the result didn't go well, I got a better chance of what I'm capable of and what not, which give me a clearer view of how I should proceed with my career life

There are a few personal things which I think I should share. To start with, I am a father of seven year old daughter and I love to keep pace with her curious questions and tremendous energy. Me, my wife and she often take short travels to explore places. I am also a trained Yoga and mindfulness expert through 'Art of Living foundation'. I trained upto the advanced levels and practice breathing exercises regularly. This helps keep my mind calm and thoughts at pace amidst daily rigor
