About me
My mission is simple → Protect startups and teams from buying AI they can't use.
After a decade building AI systems across medtech, automotive, and enterprise sectors, I've seen too many companies burned by consultancies selling PowerPoints instead of working code. Technical teams get sidelined, projects fail, and AI becomes another expensive disappointment. I founded Datavengers to change that equation.
My path here wasn't typical. I started in research (PhD in genomics, postdoc in gene therapy) before recognizing that AI would reshape every industry. So I pivoted! Earned my Master's in Data Science & Artificial Intelligence and dove into industry, where I ship production-grade AI systems that actually deliver ROI. My academic foundation gave me the rigor, but it's the years of shipping production code that taught me what actually works. From patent analysis systems processing thousands of documents to computer vision catching defects on production lines, I've learned what works beyond the proof-of-concept stage. This unique background means I can translate between data scientists writing the code, executives signing the checks, and users living with the results.
Today, through Datavengers and my educational content, I help companies implement AI that sticks and developers avoid the mistakes I've made. Because the real challenge isn't understanding AI - it's making it work reliably, at scale, with real data and real constraints. That's where I come in.

Frequently asked questions
How quickly can you start working on my project?
I can typically begin new projects within 1-2 weeks of contract signing. For urgent matters, I maintain some flexibility for rapid response situations and can potentially start sooner - just let me know your timeline during our initial consultation.
Do you require a minimum project size or commitment?
While I can accommodate projects of any size, I find that engagements of at least 20 hours per week allow for meaningful impact. This gives us enough time to understand your data, implement solutions, and deliver actionable results. We can start with a small pilot project to ensure we're a good fit.
What industries do you have experience in?
I've successfully delivered projects across biotech, healthcare, manufacturing, and automotive sectors. While I specialize in data science & AI fundamentals that apply across sectors, I particularly excel in projects involving the implementation of AI solutions such as RAG and LLM integration for enterprise applications.
How do you handle data security and confidentiality?
I take data security extremely seriously. I sign comprehensive NDAs before starting any project, use enterprise-grade encryption for all data transfers, and follow industry best practices for data handling. I can also work within your existing security infrastructure and policies.
What's your pricing structure?
I offer both project-based and retainer pricing models. Project fees are based on scope, complexity, and value delivered rather than hours worked. For ongoing support, I offer flexible retainer packages. Let's discuss your specific needs during our consultation to determine the most cost-effective approach.
How do you communicate progress and results?
I maintain clear communication through weekly progress updates and regular check-in meetings. You'll receive detailed documentation of all analyses, findings, and recommendations. For ongoing projects, I provide interactive dashboards and reports that allow you to track progress and results in real-time.
