Hey, I'm Faraz.
Canada
I am passionate about building software that is simple, powerful, and elegant.
I currently work at Health Canada as a Junior Data Scientist, where I focus on data analysis, machine learning, and developing internal tools.
I have a degree in Computer Science & Data Science from UBC. I previously did full-stack development for UBC Bionics, and also did freelance development for a review-aggregator company.
