About me
I am a data scientist with several years of experience in various flavors of data science, like academic research, startup ventures, and large enterprise projects.Currently, I am working on a big data analytics startup called Radoop that combines Hadoop and RapidMiner to make big data analytics easier to use.
Previously, I have been a data scientist at Secret Sauce Partners where we have created a patented technology for predicting customer behavior. Before that, I have been a data mining PhD student with the topic of pattern classification in time-series and collaborated with renowned scientists from Canada and the Czech Republic.
