Major: Data Science

Year: Junior

Hometown: Muscat, Oman

I chose this major because...  Because I see it as a bridge between the raw world of numbers and data and the human stories they tell. Data is the language of the future and I wanted to be fluent in it.

Favorite Course(s): Advanced Data Analytics

Clubs/Extracurricular Activities: DMSA, Student Ambassador

Co-ops I’ve done: Software Development @ SIG, Data Science @ Franklin Templeton, Cyber Defense and Engineering Consultant @ PwC

Favorite thing/place at Drexel: Drexel Park

When I'm not at Drexel, I'm... usually planning out a vacation or deciding on the next restaurant I can try.

When you are in Philadelphia, I think you should... Walk on the Schuylkill River trail, grab some food from Chinatown and chill in Penn's Landing

Advice to new/incoming CCI students: Go to all the events that interest you. Not only is it an excellent way to build your network, it is also an excellent way to make new friends. And although school takes a lot of time, don't forget to still have fun. Life is more than just your college and grades.

What is your dream job? Machine Learning Engineer

Favorite Animated Character: Nick Wilde - Zootopia
