Hello! I am

Nyein Chan Aung

For the past 12 years, I've built and worked on digital products across agriculture, finance, and education,  mostly in Myanmar. These days, I'm also studying data science and AI and looking for ways to put it to use on real, everyday problems rather than treat it as a buzzword. 

Proud Organizations

 

My major objective is to contribute to the business by utilizing my technical and business management skills.
