Selected work
Some applied ML, agentic systems, and practical AI tools I've been working on.
A local-first personal research agent running on my personal MacBook M3, using local LLMs via Ollama, a custom MCP server exposing tools (PDF reader, file search, writers), and a controller orchestrating LLM–tool interactions. Includes a small document-store RAG and an interactive CLI interface.
Kaggle Notebook Master focused on model development, feature engineering, and clear, educational notebooks. My notebooks have collected 2,900+ upvotes and 2,400+ forks, and I peaked at #75 worldwide in the notebooks ranking.
Open-source software development project: an AI study toolkit with a FastAPI backend and structured data model for notes, flashcards, SRS, and activity analytics. Includes an AI service for summaries, flashcard generation, keyword extraction, and note graphing, with OAuth login, email verification, and rate-limited OpenAI integration. Currently being re-scoped into a mobile-first flashcards app.
Latest contribution to my AI-Playground repo, an educational collection of small ML/AI projects with hands-on notebooks and explainers. This project is a real-time facial expression recognition system, trained on FER2013 and fine-tuned on a custom dataset.
An enhanced, educational take on Karpathy's micrograd: a scalar autograd engine built around a Value class, extended with modern activations (GELU, LeakyReLU), LayerNorm, Dropout, and sequential layers. Interactive notebooks visualize gradient flow and computation graphs, with mathematical explanations and paper references throughout.
