Go Johnnies!
St. John’s University is a private Catholic university, located in Queens, New York. I’ve been commuting to SJU for three years, and the sense of pride and involvement among students is truly remarkable.
The school fosters a strong sense of community and school spirit that emphasizes academic excellence and proudly contributing to a long-standing reputation. The professors and staff are dedicated to student success, and my fellow students were always equally committed to high academic standards and personal growth. Being part of such a vibrant and inclusive environment has been a rewarding experience.
FUN FACT:
The University Crest (left) is not only a symbol of appreciation for Christian education principles, but the shell at the top also refers to a Native American name for Long Island, “Sewanhacky” or “Island of Shells”

Certificate Program Overview
After completing my master's degree, I recognized that while I had a solid foundation in data science, there were emerging areas, particularly in machine learning and neural networks that I hadn't fully explored. To bridge this gap, I enrolled in the MIT Data Science and Machine Learning: Making Data-Driven Decisions program.
This 12-week online course delves into advanced topics such as deep learning, neural networks, and the latest advancements like ChatGPT and Generative AI. The curriculum is designed to provide hands-on experience, allowing me to apply these techniques to real-world scenarios. Upon completion, I'll earn a professional certificate from MIT's Institute for Data, Systems, and Society (IDSS), further solidifying my expertise in this rapidly evolving field.
