Aspiring machine learning engineer with expertise in NLP and computer vision.
What I'm looking for
I am a passionate machine learning engineer currently pursuing my BS in Computer Science at the National University of Science and Technology. My journey in the field has been marked by hands-on experience in various internships where I have developed and deployed innovative machine learning solutions. I thrive on challenges and am committed to pushing the boundaries of technology.
At Bradbury Lab, I am exploring novel methods to optimize large pre-trained transformer models, focusing on reducing parameters while maintaining performance. My previous internships have equipped me with a robust skill set in deploying CI/CD pipelines, enhancing workflow automation, and improving model accuracy through advanced techniques like GAN-based data augmentation and prompt engineering. I am dedicated to leveraging my skills to contribute to impactful projects in the machine learning domain.
