What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role where I can lead analytics/AI initiatives, own product-driven ML solutions, collaborate cross-functionally, and drive measurable business impact while advancing MLOps and GenAI capabilities.

I am a strategic, innovation-driven data science professional with 7+ years of experience applying advanced analytics, AI, and cloud technologies across pharma, consulting, and technology domains.

I convert complex business challenges into scalable analytical solutions through predictive modeling, automation, and data-driven strategy design, and I have led cross-functional teams and client engagements to drive product adoption and operational efficiency.

Notable achievements include delivering a production-grade physician-targeting model, reducing prediction time from 72 hours to 30 minutes, building a recommendation engine using deep learning with novel data architecture, and increasing departmental efficiency by 20% through an internal automation tool.

I am passionate about leveraging emerging technologies such as GenAI and MLOps, and I focus on stakeholder collaboration, measurable value delivery, and continuous improvement in analytics products and processes.
