Freelancer Overview

I have extensive experience in building and leading data science teams focused on developing AI models across domains such as finance, healthcare, and marketing. My work has consistently involved designing and automating end-to-end machine learning pipelines, handling large-scale structured and unstructured datasets, and ensuring high-quality data labeling and annotation for model training. I have hands-on expertise with tools like Python, Spark, SQL, Neo4j, and Airflow, and have applied advanced techniques in NLP, outlier detection, and topic modeling to extract insights and improve data quality. My background spans fraud detection, patient risk modeling, sales prediction, and knowledge graph development, where I have driven projects that rely heavily on accurate data curation, annotation, and validation to deliver impactful AI solutions.
