Hi there!

My name is Shrusti (you can also call me Ghela), and I am a Data Scientist!

I have always been a math geek, and this love for math, solving puzzles, and finding patterns led me to do engineering during my UG days. I studied IT at the Vellore Institute of Technology, and this is where I learned to combine my love for patterns with data.

I became passionate about turning data-driven insights into powerful narratives and stories. This passion triggered my next jump to the University of Washington.

At UW, I am pursuing a master’s in Data Science and working as a Text Mining Specialist at the eScience Institute. I collaborate with researchers to solve NLP problems that help create powerful computer systems with the ability to understand human language. How cool is that?

So that’s me! A data junkie who is fascinated by every aspect the Dataverse has to offer, combined with a curiosity to uncover stories and build solutions!

Reach out to me if you want to work together, or just get coffee and nerd out on Data!
