Hi 👋, I'm MARIANA PEREIRA

About me:

My passion for programming and technology has been a constant driver throughout my journey. I hold a background in Chemical Engineering from FEUP and am now pursuing a Master’s in Data Science and Engineering at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto (FEUP).

During my undergraduate studies, I expanded my technical skills through internships where I applied Python for web scraping, data structuring, and predictive modeling using machine learning techniques. These experiences strengthened my interest in AI and motivated me to advance into data science research and applications.

Alongside my Master’s, I am completing the Common Core program at 42 Porto, a project-based curriculum focused on C, C++, Shell scripting, and low-level programming. This environment challenges me daily to write efficient code, debug complex problems, and collaborate effectively in peer-driven projects. Many of the repositories you’ll find here reflect projects from this program as well as personal explorations.

With a strong engineering foundation and an expanding repertoire of programming tools, I am eager to build solutions at the intersection of data science, AI, and software development.

  • 💻 Languages: C C++ Python
  • 🧠 Interests: Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Data-Driven Engineering
  • 👩🏽‍💻 Currently completing the Common Core at 42 Porto
  • 🎓 Currently completing the Master’s in Data Science & Engineering at FEUP

Individual Projects

  • C Piscine -> An intense month-long coding bootcamp learning C, shell scripting, and peer-driven problem-solving
  • Libft -> First project of the 42 Common Core, recreating essential C library functions to deepen my understanding and prep for advanced work
  • ft_printf -> a custom implementation of the printf function in C
  • get_next_line -> provides a function to read content line by line from files or standard input, essential for sequential text data processing
  • so_long -> A 2D tile-based adventure game where a knight collects all the mushrooms before reaching home
  • minitalk -> UNIX signal-based messaging system between a client and a server
