Becoming a Data Scientist

Donation protected
My name is Wilhelmina Onyothi (Star), an inquisitive and motivated Namibian, eager to advance my professional career in data engineering & science. With the generous support I received here I managed to go to Berlin and join an intensive Data Science program , for which I am eternally grateful, but for reasons beyond my control the original budget proved insufficient, and so I'm asking for a little more support to help me see this journey through to the end.

So far in the last 80 days, we have covered a range of courses such as advanced python concepts, Deep Learning, Representation Learning, Classical Machine Learning & Natural Language Processing to name a few. 

My Portfolio project  is on Real-time Object detection using deep learning, coupled with time series analysis. Followed by a presentation, where I share my lovely journey  with a wider audience. 

I have a strong interest in how machines are used in decision making, eager to advance a professional career which aims to leverage of technology to meet the bottom line and act as a catalyst for change, for the social good. Contributing towards the betterment of the rural areas (informal settlement) of which i am a product, and exposing the youth towards technical concepts.

These weeks have been intense and truly inspiring. Now with a few more weeks to go and to make this a great finish I'd like to ask you to help me fund those last weeks. I'd personally like to let you know how much your support means to me. Thank you!

Kindly please help me reach my new target :)
