I believe that technology is there to make our lives easier and better. With technologies like AR/ VR, Artificial Intelligence and Blockchain I feel that human being will be able to solve some of our biggest challenges in healthcare, lifestyle and climate change.
My Stats
During my college years, I got the chance to work with some great organizations. These experiences taught me a lot about how these organizations function and I got to meet some really amazing people because of it.
As a Blogger on newest trends in Technology, I often find it interesting when people reach out to me and say that they found me through one of my blogs which often is flattering and something I am really proud of.

I mentored Afroz during the Summer Internship 2019 at Internity Foundation. It was a pleasure to work with him. He is a hard-working professional who completes all his activities on time. He has an inquisitive thinking capability and thinks out of the box for solving complex problems with ease. I recommend him for any challenging role in the Data Science/Machine Learning Industry. I'm sure he'll be a perfect fit for any organization.
Anshu Trivedi
Afroz worked with Anshu in the same group as an intern in Internity Foundation
I interned with Afroz Chakure as ML intern, I found him very talented and always learning oriented person. He used to complete all his tasks on time. He worked with me as team in Create-A-thon event and gave his hundred percent. He writes awesome technical blogs on machine learning and always curious to explore new things.
Jyotirmaya Vasaniwal
Jyotirmaya reported directly to Afroz
He is highly skilled in Data Science. He writes excellent blogs about machine learning showing his deep knowledge in the subject matter. He also guided as a problem solver in our internship. He was always there when we needed him and solved all our doubts to the best of his abilities. He shall truly prove to be gem wherever he goes.
