CHRISTOPHER SIMS

currently,

I'm an incoming fourth year undergraduate at the University of Southern California, studying applied mathematics and computer science.

My most recent work experiences include machine learning research at the USC AutoDrive Lab, technical product management at Frenchy Digital, and data science & analytics at Hewlett-Packard Tech Ventures.

My relevant coursework includes mathematical statistics, probability theory, data structures, algorithms, advanced linear algebra, financial investments, discrete mathematics, financial investments, and multivariable calculus.

Outside of academics, I enjoy learning Mandarin, playing soccer, chess, and poker, weightlifting, and reading.

Please feel free to reach out to me on X or email (clsims@usc.edu)! I love meeting new people and talking about interesting things :)
