My Journey
Began learning
I was a power Excel User.
Worked for a major industrial products
manufacturer.
Climbed the ladder.
Position evolved. Needed analytics.
Datasets became too large for Excel. Computer
broke.
Why ?
The most complete
toolchain for making
business reports.

Latest Project
Problem: Deep Learning
Python is light-years
ahead of R for Deep
Learning.
Deep Learning is very
powerful for Time
Series.
Solution:
Combine R and Python to build a Deep
Learning Solution
Combines the power of GluonTS
With the ease of use of Modeltime.

I became 1-Dimensional.
I thought a lot.
Then, I went to work.
A new python program
A lot of decisions
Which IDE?
