About
I moved from India to England in 2023 for my Master's at Sheffield Hallam, did a year in industry at Wessex Water, and joined Somerset Council as a Data Scientist in July 2026.
Most of my work sits where machine learning meets messy, sensitive real-world data. I care about models people can actually trust: explainable outputs, clear data lineage, and pipelines that keep running after the demo.
Experience
Data Scientist, Somerset Council
- Leading a risk prioritisation tool for Adult Social Care: waiting list ranking, deterioration detection and demand forecasting.
- Using Azure OpenAI inside a governed environment to pull structured indicators from free-text case notes, with a focus on prompt design and validation so results are consistent and explainable to caseworkers.
- Data scientist on placement forecasting for Children's Services to support medium-term financial planning.
- Building end-to-end ML pipelines with CI/CD, plus model governance and data lineage.
Data Specialist (industry placement), Wessex Water
- Leakage detection using network flow and pressure data.
- River water quality analysis.
- Data pipelines on Azure.
Projects
Multimodal knowledge-graph RAG over scientific papers
A retrieval-augmented generation pipeline that reads scientific paper images, builds a knowledge graph from them, and answers questions with evidence. Built against a timed challenge deadline.
- Tesseract OCR ingestion and spaCy entity extraction
- Knowledge graph of about 11,800 nodes and 17,700 edges (NetworkX)
- Text and image embeddings with MiniLM and CLIP
0.97 vs 0.53 mean evidence recall, graph-enhanced vs baseline, on a 10-question evaluation.
Small evaluation set, so treat it as a directional result rather than a benchmark.

A web app that takes reported symptoms and health data and suggests likely conditions and personalised recommendations. It mixes machine learning with rule-based logic, and I built it end to end, from model to interface to cloud deployment on Heroku.
