I am a Project Manager and AI Engineering fanatic. I specialize in RAG & Agentic AI while also being knowledgable of DS/ML and AI Automation. I work primarily in Python but I am also familiar with Java. My experience in Project Management has taught me how to lead teams, manage stakeholders, handle ambiguity, and deliver on-time and in-budget. My experience with AI allows me to deliver innovative, scalable solutions that streamline operations and drive growth. Between these two skills I am excellent in translating between technical and non-technical. I am passionate about turning dreams into reality! Let me build it for you!
