My name is Sy Rashid, and I love to build stuff, usually with code. In school I spent time building nuclear reactor simulations, then built hard kombucha and wine brands with Anheuser-Busch, and now I work building art tech with ARTSVP. Coding has been an on and off love affair for me since high school, until I really understood the role software could play in creating a more equitable society. I'm now back in school at Georgia Tech getting my Masters in Machine Learning because I believe in the field's outsized impact to create those opportunities.
All said, I like building and designing well engineered software systems, eating any form of wrapped food (burritos, dürüm kebabs, wraps, sushi-rritos, gyros, etc), taking photos, and trying to jump out of the nearest plane.
