Available to hire
I am a Machine Learning and AI Scientist focusing on agricultural decision-support systems and crop modeling. With over 7 years of experience, I adeptly design and deploy machine learning models for crop yield, climate risk, and nutrient-sensitive agricultural systems. My goal is to translate agronomic knowledge into production-ready AI systems that are robust and usable in real-world applications. I firmly believe in leveraging technology for sustainable farming practices.
