About Me

I'm Mohamad Akoum, a Computer Engineering student at EPITA in France, specializing in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science. With a strong academic foundation from University of Balamand and UVSQ – Paris Saclay, I combine engineering knowledge with hands-on experience in AI, data mining, and web development. I've contributed to projects in both corporate and freelance settings, working on AI-powered data pipelines, web automation, and client-focused development. I learn fast—like, suspiciously fast. If something needs doing, I'll figure it out, build it, automate it, and probably make it cooler while I'm at it ;)

Current Focus

I'm currently focused on advanced AI techniques, machine learning model optimization, and building data-driven applications that solve real-world problems.

Interests

Beyond coding, I'm passionate about emerging technologies, technical writing, forex trading, and exploring innovative ways to apply AI to everyday challenges.
