Welcome! I am an AI Research Scientist at Microsoft with a track record of driving innovation in NLP and generative AI. With 7+ years of experience and 8+ peer-reviewed publications, I specialize in bridging the gap between advanced research and production-grade AI solutions. My background spans from a PhD in Computer Engineering (sponsored by STMicroelectronics) to leading AI initiatives at Nuance and Microsoft. I have a deep expertise in: - Scalable GenAI: Designing and deploying LLM/RAG architectures for global impact. - Model Optimization: Expert in pruning, quantization, and knowledge distillation for Edge AI (ARM, Mobile, Embedded). - Tech Leadership: Mentoring junior researchers and defining strategic AI roadmaps. I am here to help you navigate the complexities of modern AI, whether you are a founder looking for architectural advice or a researcher aiming for a role in top-tier tech companies. Let’s connect and build the future of AI together.
