Ahmad Altaher Alfayad
Taher for short, and I am a Data Engineer at the Center for Distributed Learning (CDL). I began my career at CDL as a part-time web developer, but quickly discovered my love for moving, transforming, and modelling data. In my free time, you can find me working on my personal projects, making coffee, reading, watching movies, or just hanging out with my wife.
