P. Jain. Mohammed often wondered how something as simple as a phones sensor can explain to us everything about a users activities and how a visualization could explain to a business user everything that there is about their business with some amazing insights in under 5 minutes. This made him switch to the amazing world of data science and visualization. Having worked with some talented people in this field, Mohammed finds it amazing, as the end results are always solutions that could impact many lives and make them a bit easier. Mohammed is also interested in Artificial intelligence, Neural Networks, and IoT. He is also skilled at writing Python scripts for ingestion into a big data system from production environments, Dev Ops, and creating Android Applications and WordPress websites. Mohammed believes that a visualization artist is only good if they have the capability to explain their visualization to a layman flawlessly. This skill is something he excels in, making him a strong candidate to not just explain how to make a powerful visualization, but how to make a visualization independent of any tool. When hes not working, Mohammed loves to meet new people and learn new things."
