What I'm looking for

I seek hands-on roles applying ML, CV, and NLP to healthcare, geospatial/EO, or urban analytics problems, with opportunities for research, mentoring, and end-to-end deployment.

I am an AI engineer and data scientist with practical experience delivering machine learning, computer vision, and NLP solutions end-to-end, collaborating closely with stakeholders to translate requirements into production systems.

My work spans research and applied engineering: I have built UNet segmentation pipelines for Earth observation, developed DCGAN models for early HCC detection, and implemented LLM workflows that combine intent detection, tool routing, and structured responses via FastAPI and front-end UIs.

I have production experience integrating global Sentinel ingestion (Google Earth Engine), real-time scoring via REST APIs, and dashboarding with Tableau; I also contributed to publications and conference presentations (SPIE Future Sensing Technologies, GeoVISIONS).

I mentor and lead junior practitioners, standardize KPIs and reporting, and seek roles where I can apply healthcare AI, geospatial/EO, and urban analytics expertise while continuing research and full-stack ML deployment.
