41 | Srijan realized his passion for CS after learning about hardware and embedded systems

Srijan Sood | Artificial Intelligence Researcher at J.P. Morgan

Srijan originally pursued Electrical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology. During his first internship, he realized that he was more interested in hardware and embedded systems. To get a break from Electrical subjects, Srijan wanted to learn more about CS and so changed Majors. He learnt new subjects from his seniors and also used his experience to guide junior students.

Srijan’s curiosity about Artificial Intelligence grew more after his Machine Learning internship where he  worked as a Data Scientist for a startup to implement a project from start to finish. Later he started research at Georgia Tech in Reinforcement Learning.
