I hold an MSc in e-Science (Data Science) from Sol Plaatje University. My research background spans medical imaging, machine learning, statistical modelling, and computer vision, with my MSc dissertation focusing on hybrid convolutional neural network and vision transformer models for wrist X-ray abnormality detection. I am currently expanding my research into portfolio optimization, mathematical optimization, hybrid metaheuristics, machine learning, and responsible AI, with applications in finance and healthcare.
