What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my skills in AI and language technology, contributing to innovative projects in a collaborative environment.

I am a linguistically and technically skilled professional with hands-on experience in Natural Language Processing, Large Language Models, and Python programming. My academic background includes a Master’s degree focused on Machine Language Processing, which has provided me with a strong foundation in linguistics, NLP, and AI applications.

In my role as a Computational Linguist at Cognizant, I assess the quality of LLM responses, develop Python code to automate processes, and contribute to grammar development. I am currently enhancing my technical expertise through a bootcamp in Python for NLP and Machine Learning, and I am eager to contribute to meaningful AI solutions at the intersection of language and technology.
