About

I'm Kushal Ram Tayi, currently an AI Engineer and Data Scientist at BLOVO. My journey has taken me from a foundation in electrical engineering to backend development at Mphasis, and eventually to a Master’s in Business Analytics at the University of Utah. I specialize in building scalable data pipelines and leveraging machine learning to find the compelling narratives hidden within raw numbers. I am deeply passionate about data storytelling and mentorship, having spent significant time guiding graduate students through the complexities of Python and database systems. I’m currently focused on cloud-based data solutions and am always looking to connect with others in the data science community to share actionable insights and learn together. Whether it's discussing ETL processes or predictive modeling, I'm eager to explore how data can drive strategic business decisions.
