About me

Curious, ambitious, and happiest when a problem needs both code and a screwdriver.

I'm an AI Engineer with a strong passion for machine learning, data analysis and solving complex real-world problems through technology. I've been interested in computers since childhood, with a mindset built on troubleshooting, experimentation and finding solutions independently.

I have hands-on experience across artificial intelligence, data science, computer vision, embedded systems and enterprise infrastructure. I've worked on multiple AI and deep learning projects involving artificial neural networks, convolutional neural networks, computer vision, predictive analytics and AI-driven automation.

Beyond AI, I have a serious interest in automotive technology. Influenced by my father's background in automotive maintenance, I grew up around vehicle systems, automotive electronics and diagnostics. Today that shows up as work on automotive embedded systems, CAN bus communication and ECU interaction — and how AI and embedded technology will shape connected vehicles.
