About Karan Vohra

I started my career in the web development space, finding a passion in the backend side of the field. That quickly evolved into my fascination of the AI/ML space. I am now currently finishing up my Master of Science in Computer Science with a concentration in Interactive Intelligence from Georgia Tech, and would like to combine my knowledge gained from the work field with what I have learned from Tech.Looking for full-time work in the AI/ML space either remote or in the Atlanta, GA area.
