THE JOURNEY

I'm a Senior Software Engineer with 4+ years of experience building high-impact applications at companies like Amazon and HHA Medicine. With a Master's degree from Texas A&M University, I specialize in Machine Learning, RAG Systems, and Cloud Architecture.

But engineering isn't my only passion. I'm also a professional cricket player, competing in the San Antonio Cricket League where I've scored centuries and led teams to victory. Cricket taught me discipline, strategy, and the importance of teamwork - skills that translate directly into building great software.

When I'm not coding or on the cricket field, you'll find me diving deep into AI research papers, fine-tuning LLMs, or exploring the latest breakthroughs in machine learning.

LLM Fine-tuning

I spend my evenings pushing the boundaries of Large Language Models. From fine-tuning models for specific domains to building RAG systems that actually work, I'm obsessed with making AI more useful and accessible. My daily shipping challenge keeps me constantly experimenting.
