I was pre-med studying pharmacology at the University of Toronto until I finally accepted that I would make a terrible doctor. I didn't know what to do with myself so I worked for a year as a research assistant for a bioinformatics lab where I learned how to code and became interested in data science. I then did a masters in computer science (MCIT) at the University of Pennsylvania before ending up at my current job in tech :) ______________________________________________________________________Contactyoutube: youtube comments are by far the best way to get a response from me! linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tinaw-h/ email for business inquiries only: [email protected] If you're reaching out through linkedin, please leave a youtube comment just letting me know that you reached out :) ______________________________________________________________________Links marked with * are tracking links that track traffic that comes from my channel.
