Face Recognition POC for Arizona State University

FaceMatch is a proof of concept for a face-based identification system developed as a Third Horizon Initiative within the university technology office at Arizona State University. I developed and set up all the back-end code and infrastructure, using Python and AWS tools.

Python SDK for Data Labeling Startup (RedBrickAI)

https://github.com/redbrick-ai/redbrick-sdk
A public package and open-source Python software development kit for a data labeling company to seamlessly integrate with their back-end infrastructure. I contributed to the development of new features, testing, and documentation while following coding best practices.

AI-powered Job Search Site

A full site for job search focused on IT. As the machine learning engineer, I designed and developed an automated matching algorithm that combines on-site algorithms with third-party tools like IBM Watson to enhance performance. The matching feature was a big differentiator against competitors.

The redesign and implementation of the matching algorithm produced results two orders of magnitude faster, from two minutes to less than 10 seconds per prediction. The biggest challenge was joining data from different sources and third-party APIs to produce high-quality predictions.

Face ID for Sport Centers

An offline, machine learning-powered app to automate entrances and exits at sports centers. I designed and developed the whole solution, using CNN-based algorithms for face recognition on the back end with a WinForms UI as the front end.

The software helped to manage sports center partners and eliminate losses due to pending payments or expired memberships. The solution was capable of recognizing people with 99% accuracy (based on public datasets).

Data Analysis and Insight Extraction for a Retail Store

An in-depth study of consumer trends for a retail store. As the primary data scientist, I performed customer segmentation techniques using clustering and data visualization to extract powerful insights. This involved analyzing millions of records to identify trends based on customer demographics and customer behavior such as buying patterns.
