Junior Machine Learning & Data Science professional specializing in LLMs and analytics

Chicago, IL3y exp

“Amazon internship experience building production GenAI analytics for the returns organization: a multi-agent LLM+RAG system that let analysts query multiple heterogeneous data sources in natural language without hand-written SQL. Also built and operationalized four Apache Airflow DAGs for large-scale ETL, emphasizing observability and freshness-aware metadata to keep outputs accurate and up to date.”

“Repeat founder/operator with hands-on experience taking startups from zero to MVP, traction, and fundraising. Built a venture-backed company to roughly a $5M valuation and later served as Interim COO for a prop-tech startup, helping launch operations and support a 4-5M SAR raise.
