About Me
Hello! Driven by a profound fascination with data science and an unwavering commitment to solving complex problems, I am Harshitha Marasu, a budding data analyst and strategist poised at the crossroads of technology and business insights. With a solid foundation in computer science from the University of South Florida and the Institute of Aeronautical Engineering, I have cultivated a diverse skill set that spans data analysis, project management, and strategic planning. My academic journey is complemented by hands-on experience on projects ranging from healthcare analytics to AI-powered text analysis. I developed a real-time diabetes management dashboard using Stream lit, integrating machine learning models to improve patient readmission predictions and enhance decision-making for healthcare providers. My work in toxic comment detection led to a 97.7% accurate BERT-based model, helping classify and analyze harmful online content with precision. Additionally, I designed a CNN-based thyroid disease detection system using Kera's and TensorFlow, improving early diagnosis rates by 30% through advanced medical image analysis. My interest in data analytics was sparked by my desire to use data-driven insights to make a real difference in the world and my natural curiosity. As a result of my academic and professional experiences, I have developed a broad range of skills, including the ability to program in languages like Python, R, Java, C, and C++ and to work with a variety of database technologies and tools like Tableau, Power BI, MySQL, Oracle SQL, and more. As I navigate the path towards becoming a Data Engineer and business strategist, I am eager to leverage my analytical prowess, technical skills, and passion for data science to drive business growth and innovation. I am particularly drawn to roles that challenge me to use data in creative ways to inform strategy, improve processes, and make impactful decisions. With certifications in Google Data Analytics Specialization, Salesforce Certified AI Associate and Databricks Certified Gen AI Fundamentals, I am well-prepared to tackle the challenges of the modern data landscape. I am actively seeking opportunities to collaborate with forward-thinking teams and contribute to projects that leverage data for strategic advantage. Let's connect and explore how we can turn data into opportunities together.
