Hi, I'm

Kaushal Dabhi

ABOUT ME

Namaste 🙏 I’m a curious and passionate learner dedicated to making a meaningful impact through technology. Ever since childhood, I’ve been fascinated by how engineering and technology shape our world. Growing up as a millennial, I witnessed the transformation of tech- from the fall of Napster, MySpace, and Yahoo Chat to the rise of LLMs, blockchain, neural networks, and generative AI. With a Master’s in Big Data & AI from Berlin University of Applied Sciences, I now work as a Data Scientist in the CTO department at Santander Consumer Bank. My deep interest in recommendation systems led me to dedicate my Master’s thesis to building a hybrid recommendation system that blends content-based methods, collaborative filtering, and singular value decomposition (SVD). The goal was to create smarter, more personalized recommendations that enhance user experiences. Beyond my professional work, I actively volunteer with NGOs on projects that use technology for social good. Travel fuels my curiosity - I’ve explored around 20 countries so far, constantly seeking new perspectives across cultures, languages, and history. When I’m not immersed in data or code, you’ll find me reading non-fiction, hiking up a mountain, or engaging in thought-provoking discussions about real-world problems and solutions.
I look forward to see you somewhere in real ❤
