.about me

I build AI systems and the backends that keep them alive once the demo is over.

Mostly designing and building systems , LLMs, RAG, computer vision, and agentic workflows - plus the unglamorous parts: the API, the queue, the thing that retries when the model times out.

Deep learning models forecast GNSS satellite clock bias at 30-second intervals to improve positioning accuracy. GRU and LSTM models learn temporal patterns from historical clock correction data and surface forecasts through a deployed web app.

A domain-specific NLP chatbot for coral reef education and conservation, built on a custom dataset of 15,945 QA pairs curated from Corals of the World and Wikipedia. The project compares two retrieval architectures.

2026 minor

LitePad

A bloat-free, lightning-fast, zero-telemetry notepad for Windows. Made in rust why? Most "lightweight" notepads today ship an entire browser engine. LitePad is a native immediate-mode GUI app in pure Rust - one small binary, instant startup, zero telemetry, and your notes stay as plain-text files you fully own.
