Philosophy on Education
I believe that education is a lifelong journey that extends beyond formal degrees. My interdisciplinary background in both data science and religious studies has given me a unique perspective on how technical solutions intersect with human needs and values.
This combination allows me to approach data science problems with both analytical rigor and ethical awareness, considering not just what technology can do, but what it should do in service of human flourishing.
