Outcomes from shipped work, not slide decks.
97%
Forecasting accuracy on a device-lifecycle model deployed institution-wide.
INSEAD · 2026+35%
User engagement uplift from a mood-to-genre NLP recommendation pipeline.
IntHealth · 2025+17%
Improvement in seizure-detection accuracy on ECG signals via CNN/RNN models.
AURA · 20250.82
mAP achieved on a multimodal retrieval system using CLIP and Flux pipelines.
NeuralTeks · 2024I work where research meets production — the unglamorous, important middle. Take messy real-world data, build the right model for it, and make it useful to someone.
