What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build and ship AI-powered products that solve real-world problems, working with teams that value continuous learning, testing, and practical deployment—especially where strong modeling and thoughtful engineering make an impact.

I’m a mathematics graduate with a strong foundation in analytical thinking, mathematical modelling, and problem-solving, now applying that mindset to software and product development. Through undergraduate research on the “Spread and Control of Measles,” I used MATLAB and Maple to build and analyze models, including stability-focused methods, and found that combined vaccination strategies were more effective than quarantine alone.

As the Founder and Product Builder of Eleo, I create a fashion technology platform that combines a responsive website, an AI fashion assistant built with Botpress, and a live database of verified fashion creators. I integrated Airtable and REST APIs for real-time recommendations, deployed and managed the platform with GitHub and Netlify, and improved it through testing, debugging, and AI-assisted development—so I can keep learning and contribute to innovative AI, technology, and product-focused teams.
