What I'm looking for

I seek hands-on ML/AI roles focused on model development or computer vision in collaborative teams where I can apply research experience, expand technical impact, and work on reproducible, production-ready solutions.

I am a first-class mechanical engineer with a distinction MSc in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, combining analytical rigor with resilience developed as a futures trader. I have hands-on experience delivering technical projects using Python, OpenCV, PyTorch, TensorFlow and C++, and I have applied these tools in research and industry-focused dissertations.

My work includes a reproducible framework for studying error propagation in neural networks and an undergraduate project applying ResNet-152, autoencoders and K-Means to additive manufacturing image data. I deliver results independently, learn new tools quickly, and pair technical depth with practical decision-making from a trading background.
