About Me
I'm a Data Engineer specializing in AI-driven LegalTech solutions and distributed systems. With a background in Computer Science and international research, I bridge the gap between complex legal requirements and scalable technical infrastructure.
Currently, I lead data initiatives at DigiLawyer, where I architect high-availability data pipelines that power legal intelligence systems. I'm passionate about building systems that are both technically elegant and solve real-world problems.
