PhD researcher in Marketing (Ivey Business School, Western University) with a Computer Software Engineering background, working at the intersection of data science, quantitative marketing, and applied machine learning. I build Python-based data pipelines, apply deep-learning models (CLIP) for similarity/feature extraction from image datasets, and translate results into business-relevant insights. I also have extensive freelance experience in data annotation and evaluation across multiple AI platforms, using structured quality rubrics to ensure accuracy and relevance while maintaining high throughput. I’m comfortable running independent, deadline-driven work across concurrent projects and clearly documenting methods for technical and non-technical stakeholders.
