I'm a passionate and dedicated junior data engineer at Spectrum who graduated with a BS in Computer Science from MSU Denver.
I have a keen interest in developing AI models, sharpening my python skills, and thinking about how we can automate processes to create a better world.
I also love thinking about how to produce more efficient, reproducible code through SOLID principles.
I'm also contributing my skills as a website designer for The Shannon B. Jones Passion Pursuit Foundation where we develop the passions of future generations. Check us out here: https://www.sbjcreativelearning.org/ .
