About Me

I am an ML Engineer and Data Scientist with a strong foundation in full-stack development. My work bridges the gap between cutting-edge research and production-grade systems.

On the research front, I specialize in LLM finetuning, alignment (DPO, GRPO), and low-resource language modeling. I have worked on pretraining small language models and developing benchmarks for reasoning capabilities.

As a developer, I architect scalable backends and interactive frontends, ensuring that complex AI models are accessible and usable. From microservices to distributed training pipelines, I build the infrastructure that powers intelligence.
