Applied Scientist with a unique focus on integrating AI and Robotics in the automotive industry. I've successfully implemented Autonomous Vehicle, In-Vehicle Augmented Reality, and Infotainment/HMI solutions, leveraging cutting-edge edge-AI and Robotics technologies. Over the past few years, I've led initiatives in Semantic Search, recommendations, and behavioral signal processing, developing AI-powered search capabilities that reduced customer churn by 4%. I've also built large-scale systems for various AutoML tasks, including Forecasting, Anomaly Detection, and Classification. Currently, I'm focused on democratizing Large Language Models (LLMs) and Latent Variable Models (LVMs) for enterprises, making these powerful tools more accessible and impactful. In addition to my work, I've consulted for dozens of early-stage startups and established businesses, providing expert guidance on the practical application of AI. I help companies understand whether they truly need AI or Decision Support, and guide them in using AI to solve real business problems, rather than getting swept up in the hype. With a strong emphasis on the business aspects of AI and Data Science, I'm driven by the potential of these technologies to transform industries and improve lives. I'm always looking for new challenges and opportunities to innovate and make a tangible impact.
