About // SELECT * FROM me

Mohammed Zaid Mir ♞

Hello ! I'm Zaid. I'm a CS student @ Western University working towards a career in data engineering.

So far that's taken me through research in deep learning for financial modelling, medical imaging & ML, and now software engineering at Q-PEC. Outside the terminal you'll find me at a chessboard (peak rating 2102), on a bouldering wall, or out on a run.
