I specialize in Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), agentic AI systems, and fine-tuning large language models. I bring strong foundations in machine learning and NLP to build end-to-end systems from raw data pipelines to deployed, production-grade applications.

Experience

University of Texas at San Antonio
May 2024 – Aug 2025
San Antonio, Texas

Data Scientist — Document Processing & Information Retrieval

  • Engineered a production-grade RAG pipeline with agentic capabilities; reduced query response times by 40% across 10K+ production queries.
  • Built ML pipeline for document classification using BERT on 50K+ documents, achieving 94% accuracy with automated retraining for drift detection.

MetaphorPrompt: An Analogical Reasoning Approach for Extracting Causal Links from Biological Text

Introduces MetaphorPrompt, a novel approach using GPT-4 to generate metaphors that map biological processes onto real-world scenarios, improving extraction of molecular regulatory pathways from biomedical literature. Tested on the reguloGPT dataset; achieves improved precision, recall, and F1 scores in causal event link prediction via analogical reasoning and in-context learning.
