About

I build, test, and explain models in financial applications.

I work across machine learning, artificial intelligence, accounting, finance, and cloud systems. My focus is on how models are built, tested, governed, and explained — especially when they affect financial decisions.

How I teach

I do not teach models as magic or certainty. I teach them as structured arguments: inputs, assumptions, calculations, tests, outputs, and limits.
