I build validated AI, LLM, and statistical data products from real-world data.
What I'm looking for
I build applied AI and statistical data products, from LLM and RAG applications to rigorous model validation. My work combines statistical modeling with NLP, deep learning, computer vision, and deployable interactive systems.
For the Israel Nature & Parks Authority, I built an end-to-end Hebrew NLP system over 30K+ visitor reviews, achieving F1 = 0.91 for sentiment analysis and surfacing recurring operational issues. I later extended the workflow into an English-language Applied AI application using PydanticAI and an interactive user-input pipeline.
At Hadassah Hospital Heart Institute, I analyzed clinical and cardiac MRI data for 4,255 LVH patients, identifying four phenotypes and evaluating outcomes with Kaplan-Meier and Cox survival analysis. I also build portfolio applications with PyTorch, Hugging Face, Docker, AWS, vector search, AI agents, and structured outputs.
