๐Ÿง  About Me

I'm a Data Science and Systems graduate passionate about building intelligent, data-driven solutions that bridge the gap between complex models and real-world impact. I specialise in machine learning, deep learning, statistical modeling, and production-aware AI engineering โ€” from preparing high-quality datasets and training models to deploying them as APIs, dashboards, and scalable applications.

My academic research focused on handling extreme class imbalance and class overlap in binary classification on big data, giving me deep expertise in experiment design, model evaluation, and rigorous statistical analysis.

๐Ÿš€ What I Do

๐Ÿค– Machine Learning & AI

Building and evaluating predictive models with a focus on classification, model interpretability, and robust performance on challenging datasets โ€” including imbalanced and overlapping class distributions.

๐Ÿ“Š Data Science & Analytics

End-to-end analytical workflows: data extraction, cleaning, feature engineering, exploratory analysis, statistical testing, and interactive dashboarding for clear, decision-ready insights.

โš™๏ธ AI Engineering & MLOps

Deploying models beyond notebooks โ€” REST APIs with FastAPI, interactive apps with Streamlit, experiment tracking with MLflow, containerisation with Docker, and CI/CD-aware workflows.

๐Ÿ—„๏ธ Data Engineering

Designing reliable ETL pipelines, managing relational and NoSQL databases, ensuring data quality and validation, and building the data foundations that power AI systems.
