Built and led an NLP web application from the ground up, including a custom BERTopic model for automated topic extraction and document classification. Designed and shipped the company's client-facing mobile app for iOS and Android. Owned the work end-to-end across machine learning, backend, and frontend. Stack: Python, BERTopic/NLP, TypeScript, React, mobile development.

Freelance AI engineer focused on fintech and capital markets. I help trading, banking, and investment companies build AI-powered tools — LLM integrations, document-processing pipelines, and data-intensive web applications. I work research-first: before building, I dig into the actual problem, the domain, and the current state of the technology, so the solution fits the real constraints rather than the obvious ones. That approach comes from genuine capital-markets domain knowledge — I work inside a Dutch broker, so I understand the data, compliance, and regulatory realities fintech products face. I stay current with a fast-moving AI field and bring that directly into client work. Stack: Python, TypeScript, React/Next.js, LLM/AI APIs, PostgreSQL.
