AI researcher · Multimodal intelligence

Intelligence isn’t static. It adapts as the world evolves.

I am an Applied Scientist at Openstream AI, working across multimodal learning, document understanding, and agentic AI. My research connects visual evidence, language, and structured knowledge to help models adapt to new tasks and produce answers grounded in evidence.
