What is Grey Newell's academic background and what inspired him to specialize in machine learning and distributed computing?

I'm studying for a Master of Science in Computer Science at Georgia Institute of Technology, specializing in Machine Learning. Before that, I studied Computer Engineering at Mercer University for a BS and MS in Engineering.

Exposure to CNNs during my first master's degree led me to specialize in ML. I was similarly drawn to distributed computing in coursework before working at Amazon Web Services as both a Software Development Engineer and Solutions Architect, completing 12 AWS Certifications.

I enjoy solving ambiguous, novel problems, and my work spans from mathematical theory to physical infrastructure.
