Hello, I'm Drake

I am currently a PhD researcher, looking at causal AI for decision making.

I originally put this website together to document my journey from immunoassay scientist to ML engineer. However, the more I've engaged the more I love about the dscipline. And so the website grows!

And of course thank you for visiting ☕

Preparing For My Post Graduate Work


Learning Python with no Background in Programming

I went around the app store and looked for a few apps that all taught python. I installed about 5 of them, trying each for a day. Until I found one:

Mimo!

Mimo was an excellent starting point for me. It was gamified like DuoLingo and held my hand every step of the way. I’m currently 10/14 modules complete. When I hit 7/14, my partner who is a programming god (at least to me), suggested starting on Exercism.
