This will be my project blog for my last class in the Post-Bacc Computer Science program. I’m excited to find out today that our project will be “Custom scripts containerization for the research laboratory notebooks” and will involve use of Jupyter notebooks and containerization with Docker. Looking forward to getting to know my team and jumping in.
Why did you choose to go into Computer Science?
This is a career change for me- I am experiencing right now the first year in 16 years that I haven’t been in a classroom as a teacher. The field of machine learning is particularly fascinating for me.
What do you hope to learn from your project?
I’m hoping to get some additional real-world experience with Docker and containerization for a project that has a positive impact on the research this company is engaged in.
What type of person are you, in terms of a group dynamic?
I enjoy being the leader in groups, but as I move into this field, I find that I prefer to be more of a solid contributor and the one to take on experimentation and research when needed. Leadership skills were essential in my last career path and I’m always happy to step up when needed, but I want to make sure to use this time to develop my technical skillset as well!
