What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply ML/NLP and data visualization to solve real problems, collaborate with diverse teams, and grow technically while delivering measurable impact.

I am a data scientist and analyst with hands‑on experience building ML pipelines, automated dashboards, and NLP tools that reduce reporting time and improve model interpretability.

I have led cross‑functional teams and mentored interns, improving project delivery timelines by 20% and enhancing team collaboration across multicultural environments.

My background spans academic research projects and industry internships where I delivered practical solutions—CT and MRI classification models, resume‑matching NLP systems, and dashboarding—while streamlining processes and increasing stakeholder impact.
