Hello!
I’m deborah, a miami-based machine learning engineer humanizing AI and solving real-world problems.
Get in touch
BACKGROUND
I recently graduated from the University of Miami with a degree in Computer Science and a minor in Communication. My background spans machine learning engineering, generative AI, analytics, and full-stack development—across healthcare, political, and retail sectors.
I’ve worked on developing, fine-tuning, and evaluating models for both predictive and generative tasks, and I’m especially drawn to tools that translate complex ideas into useful, everyday applications. From building AI-powered workflows to optimizing GenAI prompts, I bridge technical systems and human needs to solve real-world problems with clarity and care.
Outside the lab, I’m a lifelong creative—usually found at the piano, sewing machine, or deep in a book.

APPS
ReviewHub
Anatomie Review Hub is an AI fashion platform where users review generated outfits, and feedback feeds custom scoring models that refine prompts, improve future outputs, and guide capsule collection development through automated workflows.
Educational Assistant
Educational AI Assistant is a Pinecone-powered chatbot built for writers, researchers, and students. It ingests uploaded documents to provide fast, accurate, and citation-backed answers, blending retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) with a clean, user-friendly interface.
RECENT PROJECTS
My first portfolio website was a conscious design effort that taught me a lot about HTML, CSS, and information architecture.

Retro Haven is a dynamic e-commerce platform built to simulate a modern online shopping experience for college students. Designed as a final project for a Dynamic Data course, the site features programmatically rendered product pages, user-generated content, and JSON-powered data flows. It showcases essentials for student life—from dorm decor to study supplies. The project demonstrates backend data integration, responsive UI design, and real-time updates using structured datasets.

Dianalysis is a data-first nutrition analyzer that converts food labels into calibrated 0–100 diabetes-risk scores, explains the drivers in plain English, and recommends lower-risk same-family swaps. It also includes a dataset builder that pulls and cleans products from Open Food Facts (via barcode), normalizes servings, and groups items (e.g., oats vs. rice) for better recommendations.

This tool ingests fashion images and uses BLIP-2 for base captioning, optionally refined with GPT-4 Vision in multi-pass mode (global, construction, pose/lighting). CLIP provides embedding checks for descriptor accuracy, while custom vocab mapping ensures consistent garment terminology. Data and descriptors are managed with FastAPI and Postgres. Built in Python with Hugging Face models, the system exports JSON/CSV descriptors and prompt-ready text lines, and can be previewed with a lightweight Streamlit UI.
