What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply rigorous quantitative thinking, Python, and machine learning to data-driven and security-oriented challenges while continuing to grow through practical modeling and analysis work.

I'm a mathematics graduate pursuing an MSc in Computer Science, translating theoretical foundations into applied machine learning and data-driven problem-solving.

In a cross-national PISA 2022 study, I built a stacking model using LightGBM, XGBoost, and Logistic Regression for 489,000 adolescents across 65 economies, reaching 79.1% accuracy and 0.875 AUC. I also used SHAP to connect feature importance with GDP per capita.

I'm currently progressing through FlyRank's Machine Learning and AI Fluency internship tracks while teaching mental arithmetic and logic at Brainobrain Kosova. My work combines Python, computer vision, model evaluation, and clear communication of complex concepts.
