Ihtesham's Scholastic Accomplishments
On the academic front, I have always loved Mathematics and Science. Even beyond school curriculum, I have been participating in Maths and Science Olympiads since Grade 3 and have consistently earned medals and awards. Additionally in the last few years I have also developed interests in Computer Science and learnt relevant concepts through online courses in addition to studying it as a subject in high school.
​
Detailed proceedings of my relevant engagements are presented in this page as follows:

Data Science and Artificial Intelligence Courses (including one from UC Berkeley)
As I always felt intrigued towards the role of Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) in music, during middle and high school days, I decided to study some extra courses from external agencies, to build some fundamentals of this area. When I was studying in grade 11th, I was covered in a marketing video (YouTube link) for the Artificial Intelligence course I studied at an institute called Bedrock4A.I. As soon as the institute management team got apprised of the fact that music is my passion, they designed the video to be centered around the possibility of A.I. being used to create music.
