What I'm looking for

I seek roles leveraging Generative AI and advanced analytics to solve business problems, collaborate with clients, and build scalable, production-ready ML solutions.

I am a technology-agnostic data scientist with ~7 years of experience in Generative AI, advanced analytics, and prompt engineering. I build and fine-tune LLM workflows (Gemini), design ML solutions, and deliver actionable insights through Python, PySpark, SQL and Power BI to solve business problems.

I have driven TLDR generation and fraud-detection solutions, led predictive modeling and clustering projects, and created executive dashboards and automation that improved decision making and operational outcomes. I collaborate closely with clients to define requirements, craft prompts, and implement corrective action plans backed by data.
