What I'm looking for

I’m looking for opportunities to apply my analytical and technical skills in AI, big data, and data analytics to solve real-world business and technology challenges, while continuing to learn and contribute in practical projects.

I’m a Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence graduate specialized in Big Data, with hands-on experience across AI, Machine Learning, Data Analytics, and Software Development through academic projects, internships, and research-driven work.

I’ve led and built AI-powered systems, including a virtual rehabilitation ecosystem with computer vision (MediaPipe Pose) for real-time feedback, and a Medical Assistant using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) over PubMed literature with Large Language Models. I also developed a Nutrition Assistant that analyzes meal images and generates personalized dietary recommendations.

In internships, I worked with IBM watsonx.data and watsonx.ai to explore data management, model training, and deployment workflows, and I trained on big data technologies such as Apache Spark, Flink, Kafka, and Cassandra for streaming and processing tasks.

I’m eager to join a team where I can apply my analytical and technical skills to solve real-world business and technology challenges, continuously learning through practical, research-backed engineering.
