I bring 10 years of experience in financial operations, payroll analytics, and process automation at the Hellenic Army, combined with an MSc in Artificial Intelligence and Applications (University of Thessaly, grade 9.65/10). I'm currently building practical deployment skills — Docker, APIs, cloud — to complement that foundation.
- 🎖️ Captain – Finance Corps, Hellenic Army — analyzing payroll & HR data for 55,000+ personnel
- 🎓 MSc thesis on Retrieval-Augmented Generation for financial document analysis
- 📊 Google Data Analytics–certified | SQL, Python, Power BI, Advanced Excel
- 🧠 Mensa International member (IQ 133, 99th percentile)
- 🌱 Currently learning: Docker, FastAPI, CI/CD, and cloud deployment (AWS)
My MSc thesis, "Design and Empirical Evaluation of Retrieval-Augmented Generation Systems for Financial Document Analysis," evaluated dense, hybrid, and cross-encoder reranked retrieval pipelines over financial reports (BGE-M3 embeddings, FAISS, BM25, Reciprocal Rank Fusion, RAGAS/RAGChecker evaluation).
I'm now turning that academic pipeline into a deployed service:
- Wrap the retrieval + generation pipeline in a FastAPI backend
- Containerize with Docker
- Deploy to a cloud host with a live, testable URL
- Add basic monitoring/logging
Status: in progress. This section will be replaced with a live demo link and repo once deployed — no shortcuts, no placeholders pretending otherwise.
These are academic and self-study projects I've worked through — useful for understanding the underlying methods, not yet production systems. Repos will be linked here as they're cleaned up and published.
