About Elske

I enjoy working on ML projects, ranging from classical ML such as random forests to deep learning, neural networks, transformers and RAG. I built a RAG chatbot for Erfocentrum, among other projects.
I'm an MSc Data Science student at the University of Amsterdam, with 10 years of work experience in media and advertising, from social media advertising and branded content to influencer marketing. I have led teams and worked for major clients in sectors including telecom, beauty, consumer products, fast food and finance.
Through my master's in BPM & IT I also have knowledge of data governance, data analytics and business intelligence, and completed projects for ANWB and OHRA.
