Bye Bye 2022, Hello 2023 – I am SO Excited for You
How was 2022 for You? It has become a habit for me to sit down at the end of the year or at the beginning of the new year and look back. I am sure y’all have done it as well. “What did I do?”; “What am I proud of?”; “What did I not accomplish?“ 2022 Was […]
Some thoughts on job layoffs
Hey there, It has been a while, I know. At this point, if you still stop by from time to time, I can only say: Thank You for being so loyal. I do not have major life updates, but I am still enjoying my life and the little moments with family and friends in the […]
#Book 2: Everybody lies from Seth Stephens-Davidowitz
I came across this book in one of my classes at school. This is what I would call a book that covers the use of Data Science for social good. You do not have to be a data scientist to read it. There are no technical words whatsoever. The author uses data that we produce […]

I just wanted to be normal
For many years, the only feeling was: ‘I just want to be normal.’ Many of you may think I have everything figured out – Far from it! For many years, the only thought I had was: Why can’t I be happy like my friends? Why can I not be content with my job? Why am I not […]
I have some fresh NEWS!!!
Hello everyone, I hope you are fine and can forgive me for such long absence. The last weeks were so intense that I cannot even begin to explain it to you. Many protests raged in Chicago, the world woke up in response to the unsolved racism problem, and few of my friends’ friends tested COVID. […]

What a subject! You know I have had this blog post open for three days… Always waiting for me to write about it. I literally procrastinated on this for three days. Procrastination: the action of delaying or postponing something. I did not know much about this until it became highly used on social media. – […]
