Hello! This is Xu (Shoo)! ☺️

I graduated with master degree in data science from NYU Center for Data Science. Before studying data science, I earned my Bachelor Degree of Art in Mathematics and Economics at NYU Courant Institution.

My interests in data science center around Machine Learning and NLP, and here are relevant courses I have taken at CDS:

• Introduction to Data Science
• Probability and Statistics for Data Science
• Machine Learning
• Big Data
• Natural Language Understanding (by Sam Bowman)
• Natural Language Processing
• Machine Learning for Healthcare
• Advanced Python for data science
• Causal Inferece
• Text as Data (R)
• Capstone (internship with Zillow group)

I am also fluent in Python, R and SQL.

I am now working as a data engineer at O-Lab at NYU Langone Hospital. I worked at NYU Marron Institution of Urban Management as a data science research fellow. Our team worked with Illinios Department of Corrention and my responsibility was to build an interactive dashboard reflecting prison and parole population data.

Outside the classroom, I love hiking, baking, film photography and hanging out with my dog 🐶 Kimchi! I am not sure if he loves coding and data science like I do, but he loves chicken 🍗 and outside (for sure :D) !!
