About Serour...
Who am I?
"I am a leader, an innovator and an influencer. I think the personality types fit me well. "
What do I do?
"I work mostly on data processing on Google Cloud. My work ensures data is protected, encrypted, stored and used to better costumer's experiences. "
How did I get here?
"I worked hard. I studied hard. I learned alot from others who were better than me. I had two internships during University ( obtained on my own). I used those opportunities to learn about Machine Learning and improve my programming skills. "
The life I live
"In my spare time I read alot. I also run a Youtube Channel for Google Cloud Beginners. People don't know that I am also an instagram influencer outside of work, when they see the title \"Data Engineer\" they assume it means I program till I cry everyday and do nothing else."
My typical day
"My typical day varies depending on my work load. Generally I wake up at 7. I work out quickly and shower then have breakfast and get ready for 8:30 to leave the house (or work from home) and I start my day between 8:30 and 9. I work till 10:30 and take a break then back to work till 12 then lunch (am a terrible cook). The afternoon is spent troubleshooting or problem solving. I finish work at 5 and get up to do some housework. I work on editing videos and posts till 8ish and then sleep around 10. "
My qualifications
"11 GCSE. 1A*, 9As and 1 B1 AS in Chemistry 3 A levels in Physics, Mathematics, Geography. Degree with Honours in Electrical and Electronic Engineering."
