About me
Hello, nice to meet you!
My name is Amaris Meléna Efthimiou. I was born and raised in NYC and still call it home (hence my love for Helvetica font).
My tech journey started in high school with Girls Who Code, and later I earned my BBA in Data Analytics from Baruch College.
Combining my background in data science, design, and business, I now work as an Innovation Designer at IBM, helping clients adopt transformative technologies—like AI—to drive innovation and achieve strategic goals. I focus on collaborating with public sector organizations to design scalable solutions built on trusted data and deliver pilots (MVPs) that solve real needs efficiently.

Interests and hobbies
Outside of work, you’ll usually find me hanging out with my two kittens (Zuko & Azula), playing ping pong with my fiancé & friends, cooking Greek and Puerto Rican dishes, or getting lost in a good mystery book.
