What I'm looking for
I am a professional Data Scientist with 7+ years delivering value through data science and AI, combining hands-on model development with product leadership to translate business needs into scalable solutions.

I publish technical articles, founded a data newsletter that reached 9,000+ subscribers, and contribute to the data community while focusing on clean technical communication, cost-aware AI product management, and production-ready ML engineering.
