What I'm looking for

I’m seeking opportunities to apply my data science, AI, software development and cloud skills to practical business or research challenges while continuing to grow in modern IT and cloud engineering.

At SOCIALDATABASE, I led development of Python and R audience-targeting algorithms and engineered a pipeline that processed social-media records, with Google TextRank reducing processing time by 65%. I also built GeoTrends, a Shiny application for real-time European trend monitoring.

I built OpenAlex4Gephi, an open-source bridge that lets researchers download and visualise author-publication networks without coding. I’m currently completing an MSc in Information Technology with AI at Robert Gordon University and am seeking opportunities to apply my data science, AI, software development and cloud skills to practical business or research challenges.
