AI / ML Developer

I teach machines
to notice things.

Hi, I'm Nikisha, I build models that see, listen, and reason, then ship them where people actually use them. This corner of the internet is part portfolio, part daily field notes.

About

The three-panel origin story

Panel 1 / 3

Curious about how machines learn

Started out understanding the research papers on weekends, mostly to see if I actually understood them. Turns out breaking them down by concepts is a great way to find out.

Panel 2 / 3

Now: models that see, hear, reason

Currently I work across computer vision, NLP and LLM systems, the fun part is the last mile, getting a model from notebook to something real people rely on.

Panel 3 / 3

Off duty

Sketchbooks, Cooking, watching anime/webseries and an unreasonable number of browser tabs with half-read papers. The devlog below is where all of it actually gets tracked.
