Language isn’t just data — it’s structure, ambiguity, nuance, and intent. As a computational linguist, I live at the intersection of human expression and machine understanding, building NLP systems that don’t just process text but grasp the messy, layered reality of language. My experience spans deep linguistic annotation, syntactic parsing, semantic modeling, and transformer-based architectures. I've worked on multilingual NLP, low-resource languages, and systems that turn raw language into structured insight. Lately, I’ve been venturing into the thought-provoking world of quantum linguistics — where meaning behaves less like a fixed value and more like a probability cloud. I’m fascinated by how quantum theory can inform next-generation language models, especially in handling ambiguity, entanglement of concepts, and contextual fluidity. I’m here to build systems that don’t just decode language — they respect its complexity. If you're looking for someone who speaks both the language of IPA’s and the logic of binaries, let’s connect!
