About
I am Ioannis. A robotics enthusiast and graduate of the National Technical University of Athens. Currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Data Science at Harvard while working as an AI Engineer. My academic and professional goals focus on ensuring technology creates meaningful and positive societal impact. For four years, I taught robotics to high school students in Greece, aiming to inspire youth and strengthen our community. Our country needs it. Alongside my technical work, I value balance and personal growth. I play tennis and I recently took up climbing, and gymnastics. I believe the most effective engineers combine technical excellence with social responsibility and a well-rounded life perspective.
