About

I am an AI/ML Engineer with 6+ years of experience designing, training, and deploying ML and generative AI systems across healthcare and finance. I have a strong background in LLMs, RAG pipelines, multimodal AI, and MLOps, with hands-on experience moving models from research to production in cloud environments. I enjoy collaborating with cross functional and remote teams to deliver reliable, compliant AI solutions.

In my work I focus on translating research into production grade systems, building scalable inference and training pipelines, and ensuring governance and regulatory alignment. I also mentor junior engineers and contribute to building a culture of reliability and continuous learning.
