Building the Future with Data & AI

ML Engineer at Boston University specializing in fine-tuning LLMs and building scalable AI systems

I am a Machine Learning Engineer at Boston University and Masters graduate in Applied Data Analytics (GPA: 3.75/4). Currently fine-tuning BERT and LLaMA models using LoRA, developing scalable NLP pipelines, and building production-ready AI services.

With experience at Waters Corporation, Axtria, and Omm IT Solutions, I've engineered high-performance APIs, built real-time Kafka pipelines processing 1M+ events/day, and deployed Dockerized microservices on AWS via Kubernetes. I have 3 published research papers and 6+ open source contributions to projects like Meshery, SunPy, and Kyverno.
