I build machine learning models for education and social-impact problems.
What I'm looking for
I'm a computer science graduate building data-driven machine learning solutions for real-world education and social-impact problems.
During my AI and ML internship at Vortex Tech, I analyzed nearly 48,000 Pakistani university student records, built classification models for hiring likelihood, and developed regression and clustering models for salary prediction and academic-performance segmentation. I also completed sentiment analysis on 50,000 IMDB reviews using TF-IDF and Logistic Regression, reaching 88.85% accuracy.
I've built a Random Forest Student Performance Predictor that achieved 80%+ accuracy predicting pass/fail outcomes from behavioral data. I work with Python, scikit-learn, pandas, NumPy, and data visualization tools to explore data, compare models, and communicate results.
