About Me

August 2023 at Chicago

Hello, I'm Chenfeng Li—welcome to my page!

I recently graduated with a Master of Science in Statistics from the University of Chicago in June 2024, following a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics from the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK). My journey into Data Science and Machine Learning began with a deep interest sparked by AlphaGo's success in 2017. Since then, I've developed a strong foundation in Mathematics, Statistics, and a wide array of Machine Learning algorithms, ranging from linear regression to deep neural networks.

Throughout my academic career, I engaged in extensive research, often working independently, as a team member, or leading projects. My proudest achievement is my master's thesis, a nine-month research project exploring the relationship between media bias and politicians' expressions in chosen photos. Under the guidance of Prof. Schein, I independently developed an innovative system and presented my findings to faculty.

In addition to my academic pursuits, I have a broad interest in computer science. I’ve taken courses in programming languages, data structures, and advanced algorithms, and completed over 300 algorithm challenges on LeetCode. My self-driven learning led me to build a website for my college club with both front and back end, and fully code this personal site as well.

During my master's program, I gained practical industry experience as a Data Scientist at SynergisticIT, where I received comprehensive training in Power BI, SQL, cloud computing, Python, and more. I worked on real-world projects, creating dashboards, managing databases, and building machine learning models. These experiences have solidified my passion for a career in data science, and I’m eager to bring my skills to new challenges in the industry.
