What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply interpretable AI and ML engineering to real-world medical or security datasets, work in collaborative research teams, and deliver production-ready pipelines with clear impact.

I am an AI researcher and machine learning engineer with hands-on experience developing interpretable "white box" models for medical datasets, building data processing and visualization tools, and presenting technical work to non-technical audiences. I have implemented end-to-end data pipelines, fine-tuned deep learning models, and engineered reliable deployments using containerization and testing best practices.

My background includes doctoral research in applied artificial intelligence, internships in AI implementation and mobile development, and master's level training in computer science and AI. I bring practical programming skills across Python, C++, CUDA, Go, and Docker, plus experience managing databases and optimizing algorithms for performance and interpretability.
