About me

I’m a data scientist specializing in AI, NLP, and computer vision. Currently, I work on the AML (Anti-Money Laundering) team at TD Bank.

Previously, I was an AI Engineer at McGill University, where I built BONsAI, an AI agent for GEO BON, a global network of over 3,500 biodiversity researchers across 152 countries and 2,000 organizations. BONsAI is a RAG-powered assistant that uses open-source LLMs like Llama and DeepSeek to support experts through coding, app interactions, statistical analysis, and reliable, reference-backed insights.

Before that, at the Interactive-OR Lab, I worked on deploying computer vision models on edge devices to address urban mobility problems. I also held a data analyst role at Canadian Tire and collaborated with the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) as a machine learning consultant, helping advance AI-driven transit solutions.

I hold a master’s degree from Toronto Metropolitan University, where I was part of the Laboratory for Systems, Software and Semantics. My research focused on building a recommendation system for question-answering platforms like Stack Overflow.
