Machine Learning Engineer @Bekaert | Generative AI | Predictive Forecasting | Causal Inference

About

I’m a Computer Science graduate with a strong foundation in mathematics, AI, and data-driven problem solving, currently working at the intersection of Data Science and Large Language Models (LLMs). My experience spans deep learning, natural language processing, and forecasting pipelines, where I’ve designed and deployed solutions that improved efficiency, saved costs, and enabled intelligent automation in industry settings. Some of my key contributions include building LLM-powered document intelligence systems, architecting on-premise RAG applications, and leading projects in multivariate forecasting, causal inference, and time series modeling. Beyond technical work, I’ve held leadership roles such as Projects Head at RoboVITics and Secretary at Rotaract Club, which honed my mentoring, public speaking, and team management skills. I’m deeply curious about the mathematical underpinnings of AI, particularly in areas like foundation models, intelligent agents, and automation systems. Over the next decade, I aspire to grow as a Data Science Consultant, shaping impactful solutions at the intersection of theory, innovation, and business value. Always open to meaningful conversations on AI, data science, and emerging tech applications, feel free to connect or ping me if you’d like to discuss ideas, collaborations, or opportunities.
