My name is Mark Davis, and I’m a graduate student at DePaul University studying Computer Science. My passion is designing and implementing data science  and electrical engineering to solve real world problems.  In my spare time I enjoy  participating and contributing in Chicago’s amazing tech community.

In the past, I’ve been a mathematics tutor, held an electrical engineering internship with the Department of Defense, installed and maintained 1200 customer accounts as a technician for Vivint Smart Home Security Systems, launched a high-altitude balloon to 103,000ft during the solar eclipse, worked as a university C++ lab assistant, and spent more than a few hours in the sweltering south Georgia heat mowing and landscaping properties.

This is my personal website, where I will list my personal and academic work, and community involvement. You can also contact me for collaboration or questions. Please check out my GitHub and LinkedIn.
