Aspiring AI/ML Engineer with 5+ years of industry experience and a solid foundation in advanced computer science. Currently pursuing an MS in Computer Science at CSU Channel Islands, I specialize in AI, Machine Learning, NLP, Deep Learning, and Computer Vision. My studies focus on cutting-edge areas like Neural Networks, Pattern Recognition, and Data Analytics, equipping me to tackle complex AI and ML challenges.At Ciena, I enhanced client systems' efficiency by developing network management solutions, leading two major projects in Fault, Inventory, Performance, and Service Management for telecom networks. Proficient in Java, Python, XML, and key networking protocols (NETCONF, SNMP, API, TL1), I also leveraged SD-WAN Architecture, Telemetry, Logstash, Syslog, and Kafka to optimize monitoring.Driven to apply my software engineering and AI/ML skills to real-world challenges, I am actively seeking opportunities to create impactful, intelligent systems in AI and Machine Learning.
