About

Built and deployed an LLM/RAG system that uses differential privacy and distributional similarity checks to transform private data into a non-sensitive knowledge base while preserving utility. Also has experience demonstrating adversarial ML concepts (FGSM) to non-technical audiences by focusing on observable model behavior rather than implementation details.

Key Strengths

  • Built a privacy-preserving pipeline to convert sensitive data into a non-sensitive RAG knowledge base for LLMs
  • Balances privacy vs. utility by tuning noise and monitoring statistical alignment with distributional metrics
  • Pragmatic model selection considering performance, cost, and data sensitivity (local deployment when needed)
  • Structured AI workflow design with stepwise testing on representative and edge cases
  • Defines task-specific evaluation metrics and performs failure analysis to drive improvements
  • Effective at explaining AI behavior to non-technical stakeholders using visual demonstrations (FGSM example)
