With more than four years of industry experience as a Data Analyst and four years of academic experience, I can help you with your data analysis needs
My name is Aleksei Gridnev, I have been living in Oslo, Norway since 2019. I had previously got a Ph. D. Degree in Political Science at Scuola Normale Superiore (Italy). During both my academic and professional experience, I got a lot of knowledge of Python, SQL Server, R, Power BI, and other technologies.
Recently, I also started to work on generative AI technologies such as local large language models (LLMs), image generation models, speech recognition models, and others. I developed AI Language Teacher, which is a locally-runnable chatbot which helps with learning foreign languages. Check it out here!
