This project allowed me to enhance my skills in data analysis and energy-saving strategies while
contributing to a team effort. Collaborating with my teammates was a rewarding experience, and
I learned a lot from our discussions and collective problem-solving.

I stayed organized and worked hard to meet deadlines, but I realize I could had been more proactive
in suggesting ideas and initiating discussions. This experience highlighted the importance of
stepping out of my comfort zone to take a more active role.

Overall, I am proud of my contributions and the lessons I’ve learned. This project has motivated me
to improve further, especially in teamwork and technical expertise, as I take on future challenges.
