About me

Hello there! My name is Carlos. I'm a PhD and Electrical Engineer with a strong interest in Image Processing, Pattern Recognition, and Teaching. My career has focused on high-tech, innovation-driven projects involving automation systems in medicine, mining, and retail.

In these projects, I’ve applied techniques from statistical modeling, machine learning, and computer vision. My PhD research focused on detecting complex patterns using colour and texture features — work that laid the foundation for my transition into data science and AI.

More recently, I’ve led full-cycle data science projects: collecting and preprocessing large datasets, building and deploying machine learning models, and interpreting results for stakeholders. I write production-ready code in Python and R, and have hands-on experience in areas like NLP, computer vision, and Generative AI. I also bring a strong awareness of model evaluation, ethical AI, and data privacy.

Alongside technical work, I’ve devoted much of my career to teaching. I’ve taught everything from foundational math and physics to advanced electrical engineering topics. I enjoy sharing knowledge — especially in image processing — and strive to create engaging learning environments that foster curiosity and critical thinking.
