Machine Learning / Data Science, transitioning from a clinical background as a Nurse specialized in Ophthalmology (Medical Retina) into healthcare-focused ML.

• Nurse specialized in Ophthalmology, with hands-on experience coordinating pharmaceutical clinical trials and supporting complex surgical and diagnostic procedures.

• Completed an intensive Data Science & Machine Learning Bootcamp at Ironhack — Python, SQL, Statistics, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Data Engineering.

• Focused on Health Tech, Clinical Data, and AI applied to healthcare and pharma — building reliable, human-centered data products where a clinician stays in the loop.

Retinal Screening Triage System — https://github.com/madatascienceml/project-ds-end-to-end-v2

AI-assisted diabetic retinopathy triage system combining an EfficientNetB0-based image classifier, a deterministic rule engine for triage action and follow-up interval, and a RAG-powered module that drafts a structured clinical pre-report — always keeping a clinician in the loop.
