I'm an AI engineer with applied experience building LLM-powered applications, RAG pipelines, and agentic systems using the OpenAI API and HuggingFace. My background combines production-minded engineering with peer-reviewed research in generative AI and computer vision, including publications at CVPR 2025 and IEEE TPS 2025. I hold an MS in Computer Science from UNC Charlotte and work fluently across PyTorch, Python, and modern ML tooling. Whether it's a retrieval system, a custom model pipeline, or multimodal embeddings, I build things that work and ship.
