When I was in my third year of my bachelor’s degree, I quickly realized how data science was becoming pivotal in every industry. With the advent of modern GPUs and computing power, I felt it was only a matter of time before everyone joined this bandwagon. What excited me the most was the possibility of applying data science across industries helping companies succeed through data-driven insights and, at the same time, learning about different domains along the way.
