Hi, I’m Nayana

📧 me @ nayanachandrika99@gmail.com LinkedIn, Twitter, GitHub

I’m currently pursuing MS Applied Machine Learning at the University of Maryland, College Park (B.S. in Mathematics, Statistics, and Computer Science). Over the past 3+ years I’ve shipped end-to-end ML systems that solve real business problems across agriculture, industrial instrumentation, and automotive. I focus on reliable, production-ready models that make decisions easier and operations smarter. Currently: Graduate Research Assistant at UMD’s Precision Agriculture Lab
