About

Iโ€™m a problem solver with a background in computer engineering and a passion for solving business problems through ๐€๐ˆ, ๐ข๐ง๐ง๐จ๐ฏ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง, ๐š๐ง๐ ๐๐ข๐ ๐ข๐ญ๐š๐ฅ ๐ญ๐ซ๐š๐ง๐ฌ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ฆ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง. Iโ€™ve been fortunate to work across startups, research labs, and global firmsโ€”building solutions, driving change, and learning what it really takes to make tech work for people and business. At KPMG, Iโ€™ve been part of the team managing one of Angolaโ€™s largest and most ambitious financial digital transformation projectsโ€”delivering tangible results like streamlined operations, increased stakeholder alignment, and improved service delivery. Before that, I founded iambu.com, an AI-powered edtech startup built to help students around the world find and apply for scholarships more easily. From system architecture to leading development teams, I designed intelligent, user-centered tools to solve a real and pressing global challenge. Iโ€™ve also worked on AI research in cybersecurity (intrusion detection), contributed to R&D for autonomous vehicle systems, and built full-stack platforms that have supported recruitment pipelines and smart infrastructure initiatives. These experiences gave me a clear view of how AI canโ€”and shouldโ€”be applied to drive real-world outcomes. ๐‘๐ข๐ ๐ก๐ญ ๐ง๐จ๐ฐ, ๐ˆโ€™๐ฆ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐œ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ž๐ ๐จ๐ง ๐›๐ฎ๐ข๐ฅ๐๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ง๐ž๐ฑ๐ญ ๐ ๐ž๐ง๐ž๐ซ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐€๐ˆ-๐ฉ๐จ๐ฐ๐ž๐ซ๐ž๐ ๐’๐จ๐Ÿ๐ญ๐ฐ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐š๐ฌ ๐š ๐’๐ž๐ซ๐ฏ๐ข๐œ๐ž (๐’๐š๐š๐’) ๐š๐ง๐ ๐€๐ˆ ๐š๐ฌ ๐š ๐’๐ž๐ซ๐ฏ๐ข๐œ๐ž (๐€๐ˆ๐š๐š๐’) ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐๐ฎ๐œ๐ญ๐ฌ, ๐›๐ฅ๐ž๐ง๐๐ข๐ง๐  ๐š๐ ๐ž๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐œ ๐€๐ˆ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐†๐ž๐ง๐ž๐ซ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž ๐€๐ˆ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ก๐ž๐ฅ๐ฉ ๐›๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ข๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ๐ฒ๐๐š๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ ๐š๐ฎ๐ญ๐จ๐ฆ๐š๐ญ๐ž, ๐จ๐ฉ๐ญ๐ข๐ฆ๐ข๐ณ๐ž, ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ฌ๐œ๐š๐ฅ๐ž ๐ฅ๐ข๐ค๐ž ๐ง๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ ๐›๐ž๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ž.

    This internship extends my year-long research journey supervised by Res. Asst. MEHMET YAVUZ YAฤžCI I used python, Numpy, pandas and other python libraries to preprocess approximately 1GB of data with more than 5 million samples, collected from different points of a computer network to be used in our intrusion detection algorithms. I Developed, trained and tested approximately 10 artificial intelligence models, both supervised and unsupervised using tensorflow and google colab I researched the main artificial intelligence techniques used in Intrusion detection systems (IDS), mainly in critical systems that use SCADA and also prepared a report on them for future scientific work.
