For nearly 20 years I have been self-employed, both as a sole proprietor and as an S-Corp. While I have been responsible for all aspects of the business, my primary responsibility has been hardware repair on embedded systems for outboard motors. About 4 years ago I began a quest to understand machine learning. I try to spend about an hour every day reading, listening, and coding machine learning. Sometimes I get my time in, sometimes I don’t. Additionally, I attended a week-long machine learning boot camp, Zero to Deep Learning, at my own expense. I completed a data science course with Springboard.
