About Me

Name: Hashir Ahmed

Major(s) and/or Minor(s): Data Science

Fun Fact: I like cars, a lot... Like more than you would think.

Previous Data Science Experience: I have some experince with topics listed in syllubus such as Seaborn, Matplotlib, Git/GitHub, and teensy bit of AWS.

Tom Golway Quote: "An issue with current data science methodologies is that the impact of contextual awareness is underestimated since the problem is much more complex. At times we incorrectly equate correlation with causation based on incomplete data or lack of understanding sensitive dependencies between data sets"

My Interpretation A prevalent issue occurring in the field of data science is the misinterpretation and overlooking of data... this is leading to many confusions and side effects in the "real-world". Ex: Just because car sales and shark attacks both increase during the summer, it doesn't buying cars causes more shark attacks.
