I build computer vision and deep learning systems and take them from research into production. I am a Data Scientist at Vetology in Chicago, where I have shipped 200+ models across classification, detection, and segmentation, trained on A100s over 250,000+ radiographs, and processed more than 12 million images in production.

My focus is medical imaging, self supervised learning, and the model validation and governance that regulated, clinical use demands. I care about the whole path: pretraining and architecture, then validation, monitoring, and efficient inference once a model ships.

Things I work with

Selected work

Most of the repos below are clean, tested implementations built to be read and run. Where a project would normally lean on a huge pretrained model or external service, it uses a small stand in so the tests stay offline and honest. Nothing here claims a result a run did not produce.

Medical imaging chest-xray-classification: multi label chest X-ray classifier, real mean AUC 0.832, with a validation report and an FDA style change control plan medical-image-segmentation: UNet++ and DeepLabV3+ with a Dice plus BCE loss tumor-grading: a PathMNIST tissue classifier, real validation accuracy near 0.92 dicom-toolkit: DICOM windowing, Hounsfield rescaling, and normalization, tested against the pydicom samples

Validation and governance model-monitoring: drift detection with PSI, the KS test, and chi square medical-uncertainty-estimation: Monte Carlo Dropout and conformal prediction with coverage guarantees medical-explainability: Grad-CAM, Grad-CAM++, and occlusion sensitivity side by side ci-cd-for-ml: a CI pipeline that trains, tests, and gates on a quality bar

Self supervised and foundation models ssl-comparison: SimCLR pretraining compared by a shared linear probe mae-pretraining: a Masked Autoencoder from scratch medical-foundation-model: a small self supervised encoder pretrained on MedMNIST with linear probing ijepa-implementation: the core I-JEPA masking, predictor, and EMA target mechanics

From scratch and generative transformer-from-scratch: multi head attention and a Transformer encoder built from scratch diffusion-model-from-scratch: a DDPM with the forward process, a small UNet, and sampling autograd-engine: a reverse mode automatic differentiation engine yolo-benchmark: IoU, non maximum suppression, and mAP implemented from scratch
