Turning raw data into decisions that ship.

I build machine learning systems — from the first notebook experiment to the production pipeline serving millions of predictions a day.

01About

From notebook to production.

Focus areas

  • Production ML systems & MLOps
  • Forecasting & demand modeling
  • NLP and applied LLM pipelines
  • Experimentation & causal inference

I'm a senior data scientist who works across the full lifecycle — framing the business question, building the model, and shipping it behind an API that survives real traffic. I care as much about latency and monitoring as I do about offline F1 scores.

A model that never leaves the notebook hasn't shipped anything. I default to simple baselines, instrument everything, and only reach for a bigger model when the data and the metrics ask for one.
