About me
Intro
Strategic Data Scientist and AI/ML Engineer with 7+ years of experience building and deploying production-grade solutions across Computer Vision, NLP, and Predictive Modeling. I specialize in bridging the gap between complex data architecture and measurable business ROI. My technical toolkit includes Python (Advanced), SQL, TensorFlow, PyTorch, and MLOps (Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD). I have a proven track record of delivering high-impact systems for global enterprises like Chevron, where I architected automated ML pipelines for petabyte-scale datasets. Core Competencies include Machine Learning: Deep Learning (CNNs), Time-Series Forecasting (Prophet), Recommendation Systems. Data Engineering: ETL Pipelines (PostgreSQL, Spark), Data Governance, and API Development (FastAPI). AI/LLM Innovation: Developing secure frameworks for Large Language Model integration and governance. Business Intelligence: Transforming raw data into actionable KPIs using Power BI and Streamlit. I am passionate about automating workflows and leveraging AI to foster long-term growth. Currently advancing my technical expertise through a B.Sc. in Data Science while maintaining a career of consistent technical leadership.
