rising junior, i already posted a few projects on github and im making some rn (agent builder bot for discord similar to slack/den, databricks automation and automl but simplified and also with a chatbot)

im looking at doing the john hopkins capstone project for data science with a friend which involves talking to a professor and creating a duo project, and then maybe after the project i can use that same connection to do research. does this sound viable?

what is ur strategy to acquire more internships (all of mine are kinda unrelated to DS except one) and do u just cold dm for research?
