I've previously obtained degrees which included a B.Sc in Economics (21'), an M.Sc in Computer Science (22'), and a second M.Sc in Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (23'). I was awarded an AI scholarship by the European Union for my postgraduate education. I've gained robust experience in Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, Quantitative Social Science and Digital Communication. In 2023, I decided to extend my skills to policing, and began working for An Garda Síochána (Ireland's National Police and Security Service) as a Crime & Data Analyst in Garda Síochána Analysis Service (GSAS), contributing to the analysis of national crime statistics, investigations and intelligence.

I'm an avid reader of the geopolitical, economic, social and security landscape of the Caucasus countries (transcontinental region between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea) and have dedicated a lot of reading to understanding these complex regions in detail. I have built tools for analyzing, translating and disseminating information from these regions into English.

I've recently co-authored a paper on XAI (December 2023) in the ACM. I'm currently in the early stage of my PhD, where I'm actively exploring and shaping my research focus, interests, and aspirations. My aim is to utilize my strong background in data science, computer programming, and statistics, while integrating qualitative, philosophical, and theoretical approaches, to grow into an all-around proficient researcher.
