What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and encourages continuous learning in AI and technology.

I am an experienced ML/AI instructor with a strong background in developing innovative curricula that integrate machine learning into robotics projects. My journey in education has allowed me to conduct workshops focused on data preprocessing, visualization, and model development, where I have successfully led projects involving object detection and chatbots using OpenCV and NLP techniques.

Throughout my career, I have taught various STEM subjects, including LEGO robotics and sensor integration, to middle school students. My commitment to education is reflected in my delivery of over 1000 hours of individualized STEM tutoring, which has significantly improved students' problem-solving skills. I have also created and delivered extensive training on IoT and emerging technologies, impacting over 150 students.

In addition to my teaching experience, I have worked on several impactful projects, including developing a CNN model for drug-target interactions and a real-time mask detection system. My passion for technology and education drives me to continuously explore new methods to engage students and enhance their learning experiences.
