What I'm looking for

I am seeking opportunities that allow me to innovate and grow in AI and web development, with a focus on collaborative environments and impactful projects.

I am a dedicated and innovative AI consultant currently pursuing my Bachelor of Science in Web & Information Systems at the New Jersey Institute of Technology. With a GPA of 3.3, I have consistently demonstrated my commitment to academic excellence, earning a place on the Dean's List. My passion lies in developing AI-driven solutions that enhance user experiences and streamline processes.

In my current role as a project manager for a capstone project at TheoForge, I lead a team of ten in creating AI solutions focused on LLM integration and automation. My responsibilities include researching and implementing AI functionalities, developing prototypes, and contributing to UX/UI design. Additionally, I have successfully designed and deployed AI-powered applications, such as an AI Job Finder and an AI Agent Fitness Trainer, showcasing my ability to leverage technology for practical applications.
