I build systems that turn messy real-world data into records a machine can actually use.

What that actually means

Type something messy. Watch it resolve. This runs entirely in your browser.

Normalization
Ranked matches
Trigram similarity over a small reference set, with abbreviation expansion first. The real versions run over hundreds of thousands of records and add a verification step, but the shape of the problem is exactly this.

What I build

Currently in healthcare, which has the messiest data there is. The problems generalize.

Entity resolution at scale

Matching free-text names to canonical records when the same thing is written six different ways in six systems. Products, companies, addresses, medical tests — same problem everywhere.

Retrieval systems

RAG pipelines over large reference corpora, including hybrid dense and lexical search, multi-tenant filtering, and verification layers that let a system decline rather than answer wrongly.

RAGLLMvector search

Extraction pipelines

Turning scanned documents and unstructured text into structured records — OCR, layout handling, schema-constrained generation, and the validation that keeps bad rows out.

OCRstructured outputPython

Data infrastructure

ETL and backend services that move large volumes reliably: queue-driven processing, cloud-native deployment, and the cost engineering that keeps a model-heavy pipeline affordable.

Background

I did not write my first line of code until well into adulthood, and I am the first woman in my family to study abroad. Five years later I build production machine learning systems for a living.

That route shapes how I work. I am good at the unglamorous middle of a system — the parts where data is wrong in ways nobody documented, and where being careful matters more than being clever.

Mentoring. I mentor engineers moving into AI, particularly women from non-traditional backgrounds and anyone who started late. If that is you, email me. No introduction needed.

Hiring? I am interested in hard data problems in any domain, not only healthcare.
