About Me
I'm an aspiring ML/AI engineer driven by the challenge of building robust, scalable systems that solve real-world problems. As a graduate student in Computer Science at Northeastern University, I'm actively bridging the gap between academic depth and hands-on expertise — currently honing my skills in database design, optimization, and backend architecture.
I thrive at the intersection of machine learning and infrastructure, where performance meets precision. Whether it's deploying intelligent workflows or architecting data pipelines, I bring a systems-level mindset and a passion for continuous learning. My goal? To engineer solutions that are not only technically sound but socially impactful.
Beyond my technical work, I serve as the Miami Chapter Lead for The AI Collective, where I help unite AI pioneers to exchange insights and drive collective progress in the field.
