“I enjoyed working with Chris, but I feel I could not get the most out of the mentorship and I expected more from it.”

Before starting, I already worked as a data scientist, but was looking to deepen my understanding, create a continuous learning practice for myself, and be more confident in the enormous field of ML/DL. Chris really excelled at providing accountability, being a sounding board to create that practice, and in helping create more confidence in myself about the deeply technical parts of ML/DL. We started by outlining areas of ML that I would want to expand my knowledge in and Chris helped encourage me to write up my readings in each subfield and ultimately helped create a practice of reading papers and really internalizing what was being communicated. Once I became more confident in engaging with literature, I began to want to explore the practice of research. I came up with a problem and Chris acted as a great sounding board and mentor in this capacity to focus my idea. He lent his expertise in academia to help me understand how to progress on my ideas and I'm now working towards publishing my work. I really can't thank Chris enough for his help and mentorship over this journey. While I'm sure Chris could help anyone just starting out, I also think he would be a perfect fit for anyone who's already in the field, but is looking to go a lot deeper in their understanding and broaden their perspective on the field as a whole.” Read more Show less

I had experience building and validating models as a data scientist but needed help breaking into Machine Learning where I would need knowledge of model deployment, monitoring and the cloud infrastructure that comes with that. My main goal was to formulate a project together with the mentor to get me learning with a real use case, while simultaneously boosting my CV, and then help me formulate the CV and cover letter and prepare for job interviews. Chris really surprised me with his knowledge. He didn't just listen to my challenges, he was also able to identify blind spots, like System Design, where I needed to learn more. He gave me feedback to think more clearly about why I would include a certain MLOps tool in a project plan. He helped me write my CV to be more impactful. Finally, he has a wealth of contacts that he referred me to, e.g. for practicing job interviews. Loved the experience!” Read more Show less
