About me

👋Hello! I’m Damian Anthony Wong. Based in London, UK, I bring a strong academic background and a diverse range of professional experiences to the table. I am passionate about data analysis, machine learning, and programming.

Born and raised in Malaysia, I am of mixed Albanian and Malaysian heritage. I attended Garden International School before moving to London for university, where I studied Economics at University College London. This multicultural upbringing has shaped my perspective and fueled my curiosity.

Beyond the professional realm, I am an avid chess enthusiast. As a competitive player participating in tournaments, I also find joy in coaching, and helping them develop strategic thinking and problem-solving skills.

My commitment to personal well-being extends to fitness and sports, where I maintain an active lifestyle through regular workouts and my love for football. These activities not only keep me physically fit but also teach valuable lessons about discipline and teamwork.

I believe strongly in giving back to the community, which is why I volunteer with ALSA UK. Learn more about my work with ALSA UK ➡️

Traveling is a passion that has taken me to some of the most incredible places around the world. I have had the opportunity to explore over 30 different countries, each offering unique cultures, landscapes, and experiences. One of my most memorable adventures was interrailing across Europe, where I immersed myself in the diverse beauty and history of the continent.

Highlights of My Travels
  1. Interrailing Across Europe: This journey allowed me to visit multiple countries in a short period, experiencing the rich tapestry of European culture firsthand.
  2. Camino de Santiago: Completing the Camino de Santiago from Porto on the Central Route was a transformative experience. The physical challenge and cultural significance of the pilgrimage, left a profound impact on me.
