Mu Zhu

Data Scientist, eBay

About

I was born in Beijing, China and received my BS degree from Tsinghua University in 2009. Now I am in Civil Engineering Department JHU pursuing a PhD degree.

I like music, sports and traveling. In my spare time, I like to play basketball, tennis, swimming as well as piano.

Dr. Mu Zhu  is now a business-minded Data Science specialist with a demonstrated ability to deliver valuable insights through data mining and machine learning. Skilled in computer programming with hands-on experiences in developing end-to-end data-driven products.
