Researcher and Leader focused on Machine Learning and AI for real-world impact across climate risk, legal intelligence, and predictive analytics.

I lead and contribute to AI research and applied data science initiatives that bridge rigorous methodology with practical deployment. My work emphasizes reproducibility, interpretability, and measurable outcomes.

• Research-driven ML for tabular and time-series forecasting
• LLM evaluation, safety testing, and benchmark design
• NLP and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems
• Climate and legal AI applications for decision support
• End-to-end project leadership from framing to delivery

• drought_za
  Drought analysis and risk modeling in South Africa using CHIRPS indicators, geospatial data, and notebook-based ML workflows.
• SAlegalchat-bot
  Legal-domain RAG chatbot for document-grounded question answering and practical legal intelligence workflows.
• South_Africa_Volatility_Regression
  Regression-based volatility modeling with clear evaluation and interpretable outputs.
• TerraVista
  Applied data/web project demonstrating product thinking and implementation.
