I am a driven AI engineer with a Master’s in Computer Science, specialized in AI and hands-on experience in building and securing sophisticated LLM applications. I enjoy turning ambitious ideas into robust, scalable solutions that respect privacy and compliance. Over the past few years I have designed and deployed end-to-end AI pipelines, built security-focused architectures, and collaborated across teams to ship usable AI tools. I am excited to apply my mix of hands-on engineering, prompt engineering, and RAG techniques to solve real-world problems in AI and cybersecurity.

Work Experience

Software Developer Intern at DefensyLab
September 30, 2024 - July 21, 2025
Built a VS Code extension for automated code auditing using the OpenAI API, leveraging prompt engineering to analyze chunked code in batches and return LLM-based evaluations directly in the extension UI. Designed and integrated a results dashboard for code quality and vulnerability insights, enabling clear feedback and actionable summaries for developers. Implemented real-time token usage tracking and optimization strategies to manage OpenAI GPT-4 API costs efficiently within extension workflows.
AI/ML Engineer Intern at Oratio Technologies
June 30, 2025 - July 21, 2025
Developed and deployed a hybrid 2-layer security system using regex and XGBoost models (with GloVe embeddings) as FastAPI microservices on Azure, cutting false positives by 40%. Built an automated evaluation pipeline for RAG and LLM outputs with custom metrics, JSON reporting, and real-time monitoring, achieving 1.2s latency via async FastAPI. Created a data augmentation and retraining pipeline using LLMs for generating diverse attack data, feature engineering, and weekly model updates orchestrated by Airflow and Kubernetes.
