About

I am a Senior ML Engineer specializing in computer vision and LLMs. I ship production generative AI systems and on the side rebuild them from scratch to understand how they really work. I bridge deep research expertise with hands-on engineering to build AI products that drive real business impact.

Currently, I am an ML Engineer (Forward Deployed) at Applied Computing, where I deploy, tune, and operationalise Orbital, a physics-informed foundation model for energy operations, inside live industrial environments spanning cloud, on-premise, hybrid, and air-gapped infrastructure.

Before that, at Jiffy, I built the AI image enhancement pipeline powering a $100M+ DTF printing business, architected Smart Redraw (a multi-agent AI editing system), and developed end-to-end ML solutions spanning LLM fine-tuning, custom model deployment on RunPod/Replicate and LLM-powered automation.

Previously at Flixstock, I integrated the HuggingFace ecosystem as core ML infrastructure and built Stable Diffusion pipelines for background generation, identity transfer with pose control and fashion video generation.

Unlike many in this field, my core background is not in computer science. My graduate and Ph.D. research experience is in computational geophysics and I worked for Shell as a research geophysicist for about three years. I believe this diverse background helps me approach problems from unique perspectives.

I love connecting and collaborating with new people. Please don’t hesitate to reach out! 😊
