SKILLS AND EXPERTISE
How I Add Value
With focus on Machine Learning, Data Science, AI, Full-Stack Development, and UI/UX Design, I craft end-to-end solutions that drive innovation and deliver results.
Machine Learning & AI
- Developed and optimized classical machine learning models for classification, regression, and clustering, achieving high accuracy in predictive analytics and decision-support systems.
- Designed and trained custom neural networks (MLPs, CNNs) for object detection, facial recognition, and medical image analysis using PyTorch, TensorFlow, OpenCV, and YOLO.
- Fine-tuned transformer models such as DeBERTa and MiniLM for sentiment analysis, emotion detection, and text classification, deploying them via Render and integrating into production-grade web applications.
- Integrated Large Language Model (LLM) APIs including OpenAI, Groq, and NVIDIA LLaMA into web and mobile platforms, improving user engagement and automating content workflows by up to 40%.
Data Science
- Proficient in the Python Data Science ecosystem, including pandas, NumPy, matplotlib, and seaborn, for data wrangling, exploratory data analysis (EDA), and model pipeline development.
- Enhanced model reliability through meticulous data preprocessing, cleaning, and feature engineering, ensuring robust and high-quality inputs.
- Created interactive dashboards and visualizations to communicate data-driven insights to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Applied statistical techniques such as regression, hypothesis testing, A/B testing, and performance evaluation metrics to validate model results and guide data-driven decisions.
UI/UX Design
- Designed and prototyped responsive user interfaces for mobile and web applications across various domains, including e-commerce, shuttle booking, and business management, enhancing usability and engagement.
- Applied user-centered design principles to ensure intuitive navigation, accessibility compliance, and cohesive visual identity across all digital products.
- Conducted usability testing and implemented rapid design iterations, improving task completion time and visual consistency by over 25% based on user feedback.
Full-Stack Web and Mobile Development
- Developed and deployed scalable, responsive web applications using React, Next.js, and ASP.NET WebForms, improving performance and user experience across devices.
- Built and maintained mobile applications with React Native, Kotlin, and C# Xamarin, ensuring cross-platform compatibility and reliable performance on Android environments.
- Implemented modern UI frameworks such as Tailwind CSS, Material UI, DaisyUI, and Bootstrap to design accessible, consistent, and visually appealing interfaces.
- Collaborated across the full development stack — from database design and RESTful API integration to frontend optimization — ensuring maintainability and scalability of deployed systems.
Project Management & Leadership
- Led and coordinated multidisciplinary teams through the planning, analysis, design, and implementation phases of multiple software development projects, ensuring on-time and high-quality delivery.
- Competed in national programming competitions and hackathons including Byte Forward Hackathon, DLSU Hackercup, and CodeChum National Programming Challenge, successfully managing high-pressure deadlines and technical presentations.
- Organized and facilitated programming workshops and mentored Computer Science students under the Mapúa MCL-ACM Student Chapter, fostering collaboration and technical growth within the academic community.
