I am Prateek, a Master of Science student in Computer Science at USC's Viterbi School of Engineering. With around three years of professional experience as a Data Scientist in the real-estate industry, I am well-versed in advanced analytics, machine learning, and computer vision. My expertise in these areas, combined with my ability to solve complex problems through data, has led to the publication of 20+ research papers in top-tier conferences and journals with over 500 citations.

I am passionate about staying up-to-date with the latest developments in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, and apply this curiosity to learn new approaches and tools. This drive has allowed me to act as a liaison between development, analytics, and business teams. As a person who values empathy and collaboration, I am a team player and have contributed to the successful execution of multiple projects at my previous organization.
