About

Computer Science graduate passionate about AI/ML research, cloud computing, and DevOps. Co-author of 3 IEEE research publications, with interests spanning deep learning, computer vision, and applied AI. Beyond research, I'm interested in cloud-native technologies, infrastructure automation, CI/CD, and MLOps, with a focus on bridging the gap between machine learning research and scalable, production-ready systems. Always curious about emerging technologies, open-source projects, and opportunities to collaborate with people building impactful technology.

Projects

Planner–Executor Architecture for Teledermatology Triage with Safety Guardrails

Co-authored an IEEE research paper proposing DermaSightX, a safety-focused AI architecture for teledermatology triage. Separates vision and language model perception from clinical decision-making through schema-validated observations, deterministic safety guardrails, mandatory human oversight, and auditability. The paper reports 89.6% classification accuracy and 100% recall for emergency cases.
