Arun Agarwal

Hi everyone, welcome to my profile! My name is Arun, and I'm a part of the Spring 2024 MIDS cohort! For my undergraduate career at Temple University, I double majored in Data Science, and Mathematics & Computer Science; I also did and a minor in Spanish, but my passion is definitely with Data! I've been in the Philadelphia, PA area my whole life, so if anyone is ever in the area, let me know and I can give a tour! I've also been at Vanguard for over a year now in various Data-focused roles, but I'm currently working through a Data Engineering rotation in our Technology Leadership Program. I've realized that in order to move into more intricate Data Science roles in our AI space, I will need to pursue further education. Therefore, I hope to make the most of my time in this program by learning as much as I can about the complete Data Science lifecycle, with particular emphasis on Advanced Machine Learning techniques.

Outside of academics and work, I love the gym, running, travelling, and just trying new things! If you are ever interested in a virtual coffee chat, please message me, I'd love to get to know you. Also, here's my LinkedIn if you want to have a more professional chat (https://www.linkedin.com/in/arunagarwal23/). Looking forward to participating in this program and potentially meeting you!
