Web developer building responsive client websites and an LLM-powered Python-to-Java code translation system.

I built an end-to-end Python-to-Java code translation system for my MSc individual project, fine-tuning CodeLLaMA-7B-Instruct with QLoRA and evaluating translations with automated metrics and Java execution. The final model achieved 79.73 BLEU, 0.8235 AST similarity, and 71.95% functional accuracy on the held-out test set.

As a freelance web developer, I’ve built five websites for small-business and client projects, taking them from requirements and design decisions through development, testing, and hand-off. I’ve used HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, and WordPress to create responsive interfaces and website functionality.

My other technical projects include Doc.ML, a Flask application that predicts disease classes from selected symptoms, and a collaborative Python NLP chatbot. I’ve also evaluated AI-generated coding outputs at Outlier AI, reviewing correctness and clarity, writing test cases, and giving structured feedback.
