## About

Computer Science graduate \(2026\) with experience in data analytics and machine learning — Python, SQL, Power BI\. Built a two\-layer fraud\-detection system on 50,000\+ e\-commerce reviews — a fine\-tuned DistilBERT classifier \(87% accuracy\) combined with a reviewer graph that independently catches \~35% of fake reviewers through timing and network patterns alone\. Designed APGuard, a rule\-based compliance system for Accounts Payable — 8 validation rules covering duplicate payments, contract price violations, and three\-way match failures, tested against a synthetic 50,000\-invoice dataset with pytest coverage\. Also worked on satellite\-based urban expansion mapping at MRSAC, using Google Earth Engine to detect land\-use change across 15\+ Maharashtra districts\. Open to Data Analyst, BI Analyst, or Junior Data Scientist roles\.
