What I'm looking for

I deliver services flexibly and reliably, but only 100% remote. I can bridge complex AI concepts and practical applications through training and leveraging AI for organisations.

At Voldt / Thom de Koff, I developed a LightGBM model to predict jumping horse performance, achieving 96% accuracy and precision six times the relative frequency. I planned the project using CRISP-ML and analyzed the data with Pandas.

At Data Society, I instructed Nationale Nederlanden managers on AI and data governance as part of their AI transformation. I’ve also developed machine learning models for Kaggle competitions, created educational courses and content, and worked on 3G network technology at Nokia Networks.
