HI! I'm specialize in building practical AI and LLM solutions, combining strong engineering execution with hands-on experience in modern machine learning workflows. My background spans model training, fine-tuning, and deployment using frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, and HuggingFace, as well as developing RAG systems and chatbot applications. I work comfortably across the data and ML stack - from preparing and augmenting datasets to delivering production-ready LLM pipelines on platforms like Databricks. With a foundation in transformer and diffusion models, I bring both research depth and real-world system implementation experience. My focus is on applying advanced AI to deliver measurable value in enterprise environments.
