<p>These days I'm primarily a python programmer spending most of my days staring at vim and trying to solve interesting prediction problems.</p>

<p>My main interest lies in Machine learning and probabilistic problems. In particular I find classification and recommender problems extremely interesting and rewarding to solve.</p>

<p>Academically I completed a bachelor's degree in Electronic and Computer Engineering from that <a href="http://www.nuigalway.ie/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">National University of Ireland Galway</a>. After that I attained a Masters in Artificial Intelligence from the <a href="http://www.ed.ac.uk/home" rel="nofollow noreferrer">University of Edinburgh</a> with a focus on Machine Learning and Intelligent Robotics. Currently I am pursuing a PhD from the <a href="http://www.berkeley.edu/index.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">University of California Berkeley</a></p>

<p>I'm looking to build on my current knowledge base and contribute something back to this fun and insightful community.</p>
