#7 📈 Back to school

Let's be honest, September is the month in which the year begins.

Summer vacations end, we return to work, school, or university, and those collections many of us start but never finish... Welcome to September! 😅

And an example of this is this newsletter: today, it restarts with a fresh perspective.

Back to school

It's been a long time since I last wrote here. Back then, I talked about how ChatGPT explained what Operations Research was, how it combined with Machine Learning techniques, and its impact on businesses and society. Today, I bring you more personal topics: why I stopped writing, the projects I've been involved in, and... my wedding!

Today, Operations Research returns to your inbox.

Optimization is back.

Feasible is back.

Let's get for it!

University

In January 2014, my academic journey began with a doctoral thesis in Operations Research.

I didn't quite know what to expect, but I wanted to dive deep into a subject I loved. To be honest, I didn't even know which problem I was going to work on.

What I did know was that I had a two-year contract ahead, and after that, uncertainty. So, I ventured into the non-academic workforce before completing my doctoral thesis. I wasn't thinking of becoming a professor either.

Until last year.
