Hi, I’m Daniel 🐑
Chasing AGI with Agency and Multimodal Understanding.
Machine Learning Engineering Intern at SHEIN; incoming M.S. student in ECE at Carnegie Mellon.
I explore two frontiers:
- Building efficient, agentic, and multimodally intelligent models
- Designing scalable multi-agent systems for complex real-world tasks
Interests
- AI agents, multi-agent systems, and agent infrastructure
- Multimodal AI across text, images, graphs, and voice
- RAG, data pipelines, retrieval systems, and databases
- AI for healthcare/finance, software engineering, and high-stakes domains
