Here is what MIchael has to say about himself
Hi, my name is Michael, and I am currently a rising sophomore planning to major in Computer Science and Data Science. Throughout the class, I enjoyed exploring the various ways data can be used to uncover patterns and make predictions, and ultimately be used as a guide to formulate decisions. One of the most rewarding parts of Professor Imielinski's class is his prediction challenges, which pushed me to think creatively about the features beyond mere technical abilities. Looking ahead, the knowledge I gained from this class will continue to help me as I pursue data science.
