About

Data Science Leader and hands-on ML practitioner with experience across fintech, e-commerce, credit risk, fraud, ads, and investment domains. I lead high-performing teams while actively building scalable machine learning and GenAI systems that drive measurable business impact. Over the years, I’ve worked across fraud detection, credit risk, debt management, monetization, and e-commerce decisioning systems - partnering closely with product and engineering to translate complex business problems into robust, production-ready solutions. I enjoy working deeply with data - designing models, architecting pipelines, improving experimentation rigor, and turning insights into practical outcomes. My work spans classical ML, deep learning, NLP, and emerging GenAI applications. I’m passionate about building strong teams, fostering ownership, and creating systems that are not just accurate, but reliable, scalable, and business-aligned. Open to conversations around data science, ML architecture, and GenAI-driven innovation.
