About Me

I’m a Computer Vision Engineer specializing in building intelligent systems that analyze visual data. I hold a Master’s degree in Computer Science from the University of California, Santa Barbara, where I researched multi-camera tracking and activity recognition. My work focuses on applying machine learning to real-world problems such as surveillance, autonomous systems, medical imaging, and 3D scene understanding, with an emphasis on turning research into reliable AI solutions.
