**📅 Week 2 Focus: Kickoff & Project Setup**

We’re re-starting our FOURTH 7-week cycle — time to launch a fresh project.
📅 Week 2 Focus: Data, EDA & Features
This week is all about:
🔍 Finding or collecting your dataset — scrape it, query an API, or use an open source source
📊 Running quick EDA to understand the shape and story of your data
🧠 Starting basic feature engineering to prep for modeling
You don’t need perfect data — just *enough* to explore, learn, and iterate. Let’s dig in!

**🚀 Build & Learn: Data Science Meetup --- With Coffee**
💡 **Always wanted to build a data science project but struggle to start?** Or just looking for a structured, motivating space to learn and create?
This isn’t just a casual meetup—it’s a **community-driven program** designed to help you go from **idea → working project → portfolio-ready presentation** in **7 weeks**.

**🛠 What This Meetup Is About**
**Build & Learn** is a creative learning space for people who want to *actually finish* data projects — and grow their skills in a collaborative, motivating way.

You can choose your path:
🔹 **Full Project Track (7 weeks):**
Go from idea → working project → portfolio-ready presentation.
Perfect for building something real and getting weekly accountability.

🔹 **Self-Learning Track (Flexible):**
Don’t have 7 weeks? No problem.
Pick a concept you’ve always wanted to learn (e.g. clustering, causal inference, LLMs), do a deep dive, and **present your learnings or a mini-build** to the group.
It’s short, focused, and fully peer-supported.

📌 **You’ll walk away with:**
🎯 A working project to add to your **portfolio, blog , GitHub, or resume**
🎯 **definitely some caffeine in your system ☕**

**💡Not sure what to build ?**
You don’t need to show up with a fully formed idea — just curiosity.
We’ll help you explore different paths based on your time, interests, and goals:
🔹 **Full Project Track** – Build something from scratch over 7 weeks
🔹 **Self-Learning Track** – Deep dive into a concept and present what you learned
🔹 **Pro Bono Track (coming soon)** – Work on real problems from real businesses (like a mini consulting project!)

(We’ll share inspiration and example ideas at the event — or you can bring your own.)

✨ **Who’s Hosting?**
I’m Lindsey, a senior data scientist working on AI, causal inference, and data products. I’ve built models for fraud detection, uplift modeling, and LLM applications.
📅 **When?** **Saturday ,September 20 10:00 AM- 1.00 PM**
📍 **Where?** : **Food Factory Cube**
💻 **Bring:** **Your laptop**, an idea, or just curiosity!
👩‍💻 \*\*No experience needed—just curiosity.\*\*Grab a coffee, meet cool people, and work on something fun.
