Work Experience

• Full-time, on-site AI Proof-of-Concept Intern at ITER, the world’s largest fusion energy research project, working on bringing AI into the organization’s existing systems and technologies.

• Building a chatbot that lets engineers search through ~11,000 Non-Conformance Reports by meaning instead of exact keywords.

• Prototyped the semantic-search pipeline on Weaviate, then migrated it to Azure AI Search using hybrid retrieval that combines keyword and vector search over a 78-field schema.

• Collaborate with engineering teams to evaluate results, tune relevance, and shape the proof-of-concept into a tool that fits ITER’s enterprise infrastructure.

• Built and shipped full-stack products for founders and small teams, covering everything from scoping to production launch.

• Delivered dashboards, content-driven sites, and API integrations with a focus on performance, accessibility, and maintainability.

• Partnered with clients remotely to prioritize features, iterate quickly, and keep releases predictable.

• I'm a club leader at Hack Club, a US-based coding community, where I support teenagers in learning programming and building projects. Hack Club is a global network of student-led coding clubs, hackathons, and maker spaces that give teens the tools, mentorship, and funding to build real-world projects.

• Organize weekly sessions on web development fundamentals, project ideation, and peer-led demos to keep members shipping.

• Help students navigate open-source contributions, host build sprints, and showcase their work through community demos and local events.
