About Me
Machine Learning Engineer at SAP Application AI, focused on building practical AI/ML features that ship.
Recent Computer Science and Mathematics graduate from Sonoma State University with experience in applied ML, LLM prototypes, data analysis, and full-stack product development. I’m interested in turning technical ideas into reliable, measurable, user-facing products.
