Built an AI-powered portfolio assistant using DeepSeek, Gradio, and Hugging Face Spaces. It answers questions about my projects, experience, technical skills, and research while supporting conversational tool-calling workflows.
I’m a data analyst and aspiring data scientist with a mission: to turn complexity into clarity and use data to drive meaningful change.
With a background in Computer Engineering and a Master’s in Information Studies from UT Austin, I bring together strong technical skills and a problem-solving mindset. Whether it’s building predictive models, streamlining workflows, or uncovering insights through analysis — I’m always looking for ways to make data work smarter.
What excites me most is the opportunity to contribute to projects that matter — using data to improve systems, inform decisions, and leave a positive mark. I believe the most powerful insights are the ones that lead to action, and I’m here to help make that happen.
