What I'm looking for

I seek an impact-focused role building production-grade ML/NLP systems on cloud at scale, with collaborative teams, mentorship opportunities, and responsible AI practices.

I am a Senior Data Scientist and Machine Learning Engineer with over 10 years delivering scalable AI/ML solutions across healthcare, media, federal, and telecom industries.

I build end-to-end machine learning systems—from data pipelines and model development to MLOps and cloud deployment—using AWS, Databricks, PySpark, TensorFlow, and related tools, and I specialize in NLP, LLMs, and Generative AI.

I have led cross-functional teams, mentored junior talent, and driven measurable business impact: improving TV rating accuracy to 99%, reducing processing time by 96%, and influencing multimillion-dollar product investments.

I prioritize responsible AI and statistical rigor, designing production-grade Conversational AI platforms, fact-checking and RAG systems, and automated model monitoring to deliver ethical, reliable, and cost-efficient solutions.
