What I'm looking for

I am seeking hands-on AI/ML roles where I can build automation agents, deploy data-driven solutions, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and continue research-informed development in applied AI.

I am an AI/ML graduate student with hands-on experience building machine-learning models, automation agents, and data pipelines that reduce manual effort and streamline workflows.

I have developed production-oriented solutions such as an OpenAI-powered automation agent to generate queries and manage PostgreSQL via REST API, and I have applied classical and clustering techniques for recommendation systems and EDA-driven models.

My research includes a published paper on computer-vision-based file access control and a study on QuizMasterGPT evaluating GPT as an education assistant; I combine research rigor with applied engineering.

I bring strong Python and C programming skills, experience with tools like PostgreSQL, Apache Spark, TensorFlow/PyTorch, and practical content/marketing experience using GenAI to grow audiences.
