Hi there! I’m Shireen Rahimi, and welcome to my little corner of the internet. You might know me from the Hogwarts of the Data Science podcast, but there’s more to me than just algorithms and datasets (though I do love those!).

I’m passionate about demystifying the world of data science and making it accessible to everyone. Why? Because I believe data has the power to transform the world, and everyone deserves a seat at the table.

My journey to data science wasn’t a straight line. I’ve worn many hats – student, researcher, teacher, and even a brief stint as a barista (the caffeine fueled many late-night coding sessions!). But throughout it all, my curiosity about the world and my love for problem-solving led me to the fascinating world of data.

What makes me tick?

• Unlocking potential: I’m driven by a desire to help others discover the magic of data and use it to achieve their goals.
• Sharing knowledge: I believe in the power of community and open-source learning. Knowledge is meant to be shared, not hoarded!
• Making a difference: I want to use data for good, whether it’s through social impact projects or simply helping businesses make better decisions.

Beyond the numbers:

When I’m not wrangling data or recording podcast episodes, you can find me:

• Exploring the outdoors: Hiking, biking, and generally soaking up nature’s beauty.
• Getting lost in a good book: Fantasy, sci-fi, and historical fiction are my favorites.
• Experimenting in the kitchen: I love trying new recipes and sharing culinary creations with friends.

Join the adventure!

This blog is a space for me to share my thoughts, experiences, and insights on data science, learning, and life in general. I hope you’ll join me on this journey!
