About

Madhura Joshi is a recent graduate with a B.Tech in Computer Science. She is a tech enthusiast and a community aficionado who loves analysing and solving problems. Madhura is an active member of Women Tech Makers-Chennai and Google Developer Group-Chennai. She is currently a ML Research Intern at Saama Technologies, Chennai. Madhura is an aspiring data scientist with goals and has worked on couple of projects in the machine learning domain. She believes that one of the many powerful abilities of the human brain is the ability to assess the environment and interact with brain processes leading to predictions. Discovering that this ability of the human brain can be mocked with code awoke the curiosity in her to dive deep into the AI ocean. Madhura feels that having studied Biology instead of Computer science during 11th and12th standard has given her an extra edge to understand biological perspective of a computer science problems. The one thing she is proud of is she having her creative mind, after all ‘Creativity is intelligence having fun’, she says. When she is not studying or programming you can find her working on her side hustle, thinking about next stationary to buy and having ice creams and coffee. Oh also! she's an artist who is mad about mandalas and watercolors.
