Hi, nice to meet you! I'm Carlo Lepelaars and I enjoy exploring Artificial Intelligence (AI), Mathematics, Quantum Computing, Investing and Music. I love reading, thus I've compiled a list of my readings [here](/books).
- I used to be an aspiring full-time drummer and played in various bands. You can still view live videos [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLFZ8z8GSGI&list=PLx5WERJ3t5uXYIJ39ZFj5VfGEdCWp_scG). During this time I was studying Commercial Economics in The Netherlands.
- I developed a fascination for AI, switched my focus and graduated in Data Science at the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) in The Netherlands.
- A major part of my education as a data scientist has been through working on data science competitions like [Kaggle](https://www.kaggle.com/carlolepelaars) and [Numerai](https://numer.ai). Creating and contributing to open source software has also been crucial. Through Numerai, I met [Jason Rosenfeld](https://crowdcent.com/about) and started working at [CrowdCent](https://crowdcent.com).
- I play guitar and love [sim-racing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sim_racing)!
