Allan R.

Hola 👋

I am Machine Learning Engineer, originally from Mexico 🇲🇽 based in Seattle, WA. I have a B.S. in Computer Science by Tecnologico de Monterrey, and a M.S. in Computer Science with a Specialization in Machine Learning by Georgia Institute of Technology.

I currently work as a Machine Learning Engineer at Amazon. I spend my free time learning (taking courses and studying textbooks) and working on side projects. If you'd like to know more about the kind of projects I work on, you can check out my Github profile here: https://github.com/rey-allan

Here is an FAQ that might help you decide if a session with me is what you are looking for:

Why Codementor?
I love teaching. In fact, one of my goals is to become a professor. I also had the opportunity of mentoring new hires on my team and the experience was so satisfying that I am looking to continue doing it outside of my daily job. By sharing knowledge not only do I help other people grow, but I help myself to keep growing too.

Why should you trust me?

• I am friendly
• I am honest
• I am dedicated and passionate
• I am sincerely willing to help you grow
• I want to share the experience and knowledge I've gained throughout the years
• My favorite characters, in shows and movies, are not always the popular ones; e.g. Ser Davos is my favorite GoT character
• I love peanut butter

What can I help you with?

• Specific projects in any of my areas of knowledge (see below)
• General advice on AI and Machine Learning
• General advice on software principles and writing clean code
• General advice on software design, in particular, service-oriented architectures
• General advice on API design, in particular, RESTful API's
• Long-term mentoring, i.e. long-term projects
• Career advice

Are there any requests I would not accept?

• Projects that are unethical to me or completely go against my personal values
• Homework, I will not do your homework and they are for you to learn
• Requests of the "please write the code and then explain it" type

What is my availability?
I live in Seattle so my timezone is Pacific Time. I work full-time normally from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm (ish). So, I will mostly be available for sessions during the nights and weekends.

Do I offer any kind of special sessions?

• I offer the first 15 minutes free for new Codementor members.
• I am also willing to offer a free 10-minute intro session for you to see if we are a good fit or not. All I ask in return is an honest review.

Sounds great, how do I contact you?
For any questions regarding a potential mentoring session, you can shoot me a message here, and I will try to get back to you as soon as possible.

I look forward to helping you grow and achieve your goals!
