About Pavan Kumar Routhu

The most powerful tool of the 21st century is data—and I aim to wield it with purpose." Hi, I’m Pavan Kumar Routhu, a data science enthusiast currently pursuing a B.S. in Data Science and Applications from IIT Madras and graduated with a B.Tech in CSE (Data Science) from R.V.R. & J.C College of Engineering. With a solid foundation in Python, SQL, Machine Learning, and data analysis and visualization, I thrive on transforming raw data into meaningful insights. Over the past few years, I’ve gained practical experience through academic projects, content creation, and leadership development programs. As a Technical Content Writer at IITM’s Corbett House, I craft content around cutting-edge technologies like Gen AI and Machine Learning—empowering my peers and enhancing my own understanding. I've also been part of impactful programs such as the McKinsey Forward Program and the Aspire Leadership Program by Harvard Business School, which sharpened my critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration skills. My recent projects include machine learning models for cardiac risk prediction and health insurance cost estimation, both developed using advanced algorithms like XGBoost and LightGBM. These projects aim to address real-world healthcare challenges through data-driven insights. What sets me apart is my ability to blend technical skills with strong communication. Whether it’s building predictive models or breaking down complex tech into reader-friendly content, I bring clarity, curiosity, and consistency to everything I do. I’m currently exploring internship and research opportunities in Data Science, ML, and Analytics. Let’s connect if you're looking to collaborate or build something impactful together!
