What I'm looking for

I seek roles applying mathematical rigor to AI/data projects, hands-on model building or annotation work, collaborative remote teams, and opportunities to mentor and advance applied research.

I am a Ph.D. in Mathematics with 12+ years of engineering-college teaching experience and a strong focus on computational mathematics, optimization, and AI-driven problem solving. I combine rigorous mathematical training with practical data science skills in Python, SQL and modern ML workflows.

As a freelance data annotation specialist, I have delivered high-quality text and image labeling on global platforms, consistently achieving 98%+ QA scores while adapting quickly to evolving guidelines and collaborating with distributed QA teams. I have built applied AI projects including real-time danger detection, fake-news detection, and emotion-aware education systems.

I bring hands-on experience with data tools (Pandas, NumPy, Scikit-learn), visualization (Matplotlib, Seaborn, Tableau), and practical exposure to computer vision and NLP methods. I am a committed educator, researcher and collaborator who seeks to apply mathematical rigor to real-world AI and data problems.
