I'm a Machine Learning Engineer with a background in Electrical & Computer Engineering. My focus is on one of the most consequential problems of our time — the intelligence problem. I want to build AI systems that help people tackle complex, high-impact challenges.
My work sits at the intersection of research and engineering — from understanding the mathematical foundations of neural networks to building systems that push the boundaries of what AI can do. Long-term, I'm working toward meaningful contributions to AGI/ASI research and development.
Currently based in Waterloo, ON — the heart of Canada's AI and tech ecosystem.
Fundamentals of Neural Networks
International Journal for Research in Applied Science & Engineering Technology (IJRASET)
- Authored a research paper examining the architectural and mathematical foundations of neural networks
- Covered activation functions, backpropagation, gradient descent, and network topologies
Data Analyst
City of Windsor — Affordable Transit Program
- Cleaned and preprocessed transit ridership datasets to ensure data quality and consistency
- Built dashboards to visualize usage patterns and surface actionable insights for program planning

supportops_ai_monitor.py
Simulates enterprise AI support workflows — ticket triage via GPT-4o-mini, API health logging, and an operational observability dashboard. Runs in simulation mode with no API key.
rag_from_scratch.py
Full RAG pipeline built from scratch — recursive chunking, BM25 + dense hybrid retrieval with RRF, cross-encoder reranking, and grounded generation. No LangChain, no LlamaIndex.

Building SupportOps AI Monitor — What I Learned
Architecture decisions, bugs found, deployment challenges, and honest answers to
questions I couldn’t answer at first. Covers applymap() removal in pandas 2.2, SQLite
ephemeral containers, Streamlit’s PWA limitations, and more.
Building RAG From Scratch — A Complete Technical Deep-Dive
Every algorithm in a RAG pipeline derived from first principles. BM25 with Robertson-Walker IDF, mean pooling math, cosine similarity as dot product, Reciprocal Rank Fusion, cross-encoder reranking, and evaluation metrics. No LangChain, no LlamaIndex.
I'm actively looking for opportunities in AI/ML engineering and research. If you're working on something interesting — let's talk.
