About

Certified AI/ML Engineer, Data Scientist, and PhD in Information Technology with a multidisciplinary track record across academia, public health, and the private sector. I specialize in applying machine learning, generative AI, and computational biology to real-world challenges in precision medicine, drug resistance modelling, and life sciences. My expertise spans AI/ML engineering, data science, data engineering, and advanced biomedical systems, including work with AlphaFold, Rosetta, protein-ligand docking, and in silico treatment analysis. I also bring experience in blockchain, wearable technologies, IoT, 5G, VR, and RAG-based intelligent agents and multi-agents. With a PhD from Université de Limoges (France), I combine scientific depth with practical innovation to design intelligent systems that improve healthcare outcomes, research capabilities, and technology-driven impact.
