Data science. Applied AI. Better decisions.

I work across data science, applied AI, quantitative research and technology product development—turning complex data into evidence, models and systems people can actually use.

My background combines graduate training in Neuroscience and Forensic Psychology, computational behavioral research, hands-on analytics and machine learning, and 8+ years of product and technology leadership across AI/NLP, healthcare technology, fintech and SaaS.

DECISION SIMULATION

Demand & Inventory Simulator

Forecasting and scenario analysis framed around a practical decision: how much to stock when demand is uncertain and spikes matter.

ForecastingSimulationDecision support
PREDICTIVE DECISION LAB

Customer Retention Decision Lab

Customer-risk modeling organized around intervention thresholds, error costs and ranking quality rather than a single accuracy number.

EVIDENCE-GROUNDED AI

Evidence-Grounded Research Assistant

A research workflow designed to keep generated answers attached to supporting passages and make uncertainty visible.

OPTIMIZATION

Swarm Logistics Simulator

A swarm-inspired optimization experiment framed around measurable objective improvement and repeatable scenarios.

03 / Background

A technical profile with unusual depth

Research, behavioral science and product leadership are not separate stories here—they shape how I frame data problems, test assumptions and translate analysis into decisions.

Scientific research

Graduate training in Neuroscience and Forensic Psychology, with quantitative behavioral research and a KDD 2011 publication applying data-mining techniques to RFID-derived animal behavior.

AI & product leadership

8+ years leading digital products across AI/NLP, healthcare technology, telepsychiatry, fintech and SaaS—connecting user problems, technical constraints and delivery.

Applied AI case study →

Behavioral & healthcare domain

20+ years of behavioral-health experience adds practical understanding of assessment, longitudinal observation, evidence quality, clinical workflows and real-world adoption.

How I work

Define the decision first. Build the simplest defensible analysis. Protect the evaluation. State failure modes. Separate evidence from inference. Make the result usable.
