Apurva Khemani
Data Scientist, TechnologyOne- R&D
Apurva Khemani hails from a small town in the northwest part of India called Ajmer. She completed a Bachelor’s Degree and a Master’s Degree in Technology for well-known universities of India and worked as a college faculty and a mathematics tutor for three years. When she got married in Feb 2017, she wanted to study more and give my career a new direction. Her search for pursuing a higher degree ended when she found the perfect course, amalgamating two of her interests, computer science and mathematics at Queensland University of Technology.
It was called Master of Information Technology with a major in Data Science. Within a period of six months, Apurva landed in Australia in Feb 2018 with a zeal to learn and big dreams in her heart. Since graduating in December 2019, she has worked at prestigious organisations like QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute, Queensland Health and QUT. Also, her work has been recognised in a publication for Nature Medicine. Apurva’s career has been grounded in Data Science, concentrating on machine learning and data analytics in the clinical, biological and agricultural domains. This has allowed her to gain valuable experience in varied types of data related to gut health, microbiome, weather, vegetation parameters, supply chain and exports. With God's grace, on 7th October 2021, she became a Permanent Resident of Australia. Apurva has learned one thing in this journey, if you have a grateful heart then your dreams do come true!
A time to give back : #askApurva is an initiative to help and support people new to Australia.
I am here for every student who comes to this country with big dreams, we will together make them true!!
