Amay Iyer
Hello Dear Reader!
My name is Amay and I am a Masters student at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, studying Artificial Intelligence. I have always been passionate about the environment and preserving our natural world. This passion led me to become a member of Taxonomy Australia, an organization dedicated to utilizing the latest technologies in AI and machine learning to further the field of ecology. I have had the opportunity to participate in various ecology and environment-related projects in the United States, Singapore, and India. These experiences have allowed me to gain hands-on knowledge and develop my skills in data analysis and machine learning. Additionally, I have become interested in falconry for ecological purposes, and regularly participate in eBird birdwatching. As a member of the Taxonomy community, I am eager to be involved in both field-related and quant-related ecological projects. I believe that my academic qualifications and experiences will be valuable in helping ecologists make more informed decisions and contribute to the preservation of our natural world. I am excited to share my knowledge and skills with the community, and to continue learning from the experts in the field.
