hi, i'm Pearl
i study software engineering at UWaterloo
and will be studying machine learning abroad in Spain this winter at UNavarra
i love to learn by building, automate the boring stuff, and figure things out the hard way (then make it easier for the next person) — especially with ML
previously, I interned at The Globe and Mailto build models and agents that help journalists report faster!
