2+ Years Building Data & ML Systems

Hi! I'm Prathyusha Reddy Allam, an AI/ML Engineer & Data Analyst based in Buffalo.

About me

AI/ML engineer and data analyst with a Master's in Computer Science (AI & ML) from the University at Buffalo and 2+ years at Tata Elxsi.

I work across the full data lifecycle — the pipelines that move data, the ML models that learn from it, and the dashboards that make it clear. Published IEEE researcher, and I care most about solutions that are accurate, interpretable, and genuinely useful.
