Faith Hunja
Based in Nairobi, Kenya
I am in search of, and applying for internships and master’s programs at the intersection of data science or machine learning and science. I currently work as an open source software developer intern at Open Science Labs, and also as a volunteer researcher in ML for healthcare at SisonkeBiotik. I am a recent graduate from Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT) in Kenya, with a bachelor’s degree in Mechatronics Engineering.
In the past, I have worked with embedded systems software engineering, drone technology and the Internet of Things. Lately, I have been involved in research projects in climate science, computational neuroscience, LLMs and ML for healthcare.
I am broadly interested in open science, scientific computing and machine learning, mainly in the context of research, and I am actively working towards pivoting into these fields.
