Introductory Call with Alva

Alva has been a fantastic mentor—extremely knowledgeable about machine learning and clearly experienced in the field. I really appreciated how she explains each topic, diving into the background concepts so you don’t just learn the steps but actually understand why you’re doing things. She also provides helpful Jupyter notebooks to practice the concepts hands-on, which made it much easier for me to grasp practical implementations using common ML libraries. What stood out most was her emphasis on building a strong foundation—she doesn’t just rush through topics. Instead, Alva makes sure you grasp the essentials clearly before moving forward, making each session engaging and genuinely insightful. Thanks to her structured approach, I feel much more confident in my machine learning skills. I’d strongly recommend her mentorship to anyone serious about diving deeper into machine learning with a patient and knowledgeable guide.

Alva is a very competent and thorough mentor, I learned a lot! I would recommend her 100%.

Alva is a great mentor. She has been working in the data science field for 9 years and she has great connections as well as detailed knowledge about her field. We followed a mentorship curriculum involving writing a proper CV adapted to the field, working on different data science projects and also Alva shared advice for job interviews. I 100% recommend her mentorship.

I have been very pleased with Alva as a mentor. She did a great job at listening to my objectives within the field and was able to communicate suggestions and potential goals in an approachable way. I would recommend her to others who are looking at transitioning into bioinformatics and want some starters.

Alva Ma'am is a great Mentor. Got to learn alot during the mentorship.
