Hi, I'm Merelda ❤

As a data scientist, you expect to get a job that lets you do cool stuff - Big data, Big machine (or cloud, like the grown-ups), and Deep neural networks. Reality quickly creeps in as you realize the mismatch between your model, your project manager’s timeline, and your stakeholder’s expectation.

Reality quickly creeps in as you realise the mismatch between your model, your project manager’s timeline and your stakeholder’s expectation. What they needed (often) is not a 128-layer ResNet, but a simple select & group by query that delivers actionable insights.
