Hello World !
My name is Abish Pius and welcome to my webpage. After spending two decandes in the natural sciences, I recently became excited by the vast opportunity present in the world of Data Sciences. My ambition is to become a machine learning engineer and bridge the gap between healthcare and data science through advancements in cloud computing technologies. I consider myself a rather avid learner and exceptional creative dilettante. The primary language I like to use for scripting is R, albeit I am familiar with C, JAVA, Python and Matlab; while for cloud computing I prefer Google Cloud, but am also very familiar with AWS. If you would like to learn more about me, please check out the rest of the website below!
