machine learning engineer • app developer

My name is Bernadette and I'm a science geek, artist, mom, and cat lady extraordinaire currently building the skills of my dream job! I enjoy coding and creating around a wide variety of human interest topics. 🛸

Projects With Curiosity & Character

My projects blend analytical thinking with creativity. I design them to feel both intelligent and empathetic. My focus areas are engaging with data surrounding human interest topics and building utilities that overlay those pain points of everyday reality! 🪐

UFO Intelligence Project

Data Science • NLP • Research

A future-facing machine learning project focused on organizing, analyzing, and visualizing UFO sighting data with classification models and natural language processing.

Python Pandas Scikit-learn NLP
MODEL CONFIDENCE

Deep Learning Experiments

Computer Vision • Neural Networks

Explorations into image classification, dataset optimization, and training workflows — focused on understanding how neural networks learn and evolve.

PyTorch TensorFlow Jupyter CNNs

Training visualizations, experimentation logs, and modular ML architecture.

“I want technology to feel intelligent, beautiful, emotionally resonant, and deeply human.”

Technical Curiosity Meets Creative Energy

My background spans IT, data science, digital problem-solving, and creative work. I love exploring how systems work beneath the surface — whether that means debugging code, training machine learning models, organizing messy datasets, or designing interfaces that feel polished and intuitive.

Outside of programming, I paint underwater dreamscapes, dance, study emerging technology, and imagine new ways humans might interact with AI in the future. I care deeply about thoughtful design, emotional intelligence in technology, and building projects that feel alive rather than sterile.

This portfolio is intentionally personal. I wanted it to feel elegant and professional while still carrying warmth, personality, and a little bit of cosmic curiosity.
