Why Me?

I Ship, Not Just Code

No half-baked notebooks. My projects go from Jupyter to deployment — because shipping matters more than perfect accuracy.

I Speak Human

Stakeholder asks "why this model?" — I answer in plain English, not equations. Clear communication = faster decisions.

I Learn Fast, Break Less

New framework? New stack? I dive in, document everything, and don't need hand-holding after week one.

Remote-Native

Git, Slack, async updates, proper documentation — I know the remote playbook. No learning curve on collaboration tools.

Less talk, more deploy. I turn ML ideas into working systems.
