About this session

An introductory call is a simple way to get to know a mentor before committing to ongoing mentorship. This session gives you the chance to ask questions, talk through your goals, and see whether the mentor’s background, communication style, and approach feel like the right fit for you. It is a low-pressure starting point designed to help you make a more confident decision.

You can use the call to share what you are working on, what kind of support you are looking for, and where you feel stuck right now. It is also a chance to understand how the mentor typically works with mentees, what kind of guidance they can offer, and whether there is a strong mutual fit. The goal is to leave the conversation with more clarity on your next step and whether you want to continue working together.

Your mentor

Before booking an introductory call, here’s a bit about me:

- I have ~7 years of experience in Data Science (both professional and research), with a focus on NLP, ML, and DL.
- I’ve mentored dozens of students online and offline for the past five years.
- I’ve also published three research papers in the field.

As a self-made Data Scientist, I understand the challenges and the path to success. In our call, I’ll help you set clear goals and guide you on how to build a strong foundation in Data Science, tailored to your career aspirations.

Looking forward to connecting!
