Giving back
Volunteering my ML & data science skills
I'm happy to volunteer my time to help NGOs and non-profit organizations put machine learning and data science to work for their mission. If your organization has data sitting unused, a problem you think ML could help with, or you just want to know whether it's the right tool at all, I'd love to hear from you. This is pro bono: I'm offering it because meaningful work deserves good tools, not because there's a bill attached.
Ways I can help
Predictive & Classification Models
Building models for forecasting, risk scoring, beneficiary targeting, or triage from your existing data.
Data Cleaning & Pipelines
Turning messy spreadsheets and scattered records into clean, structured datasets you can actually use.
Dashboards & Analysis
Impact metrics, program analytics, and clear visualizations to help you understand and report on outcomes.
LLM & Agent Tooling
Practical applications of language models: document summarization, chatbots, intake automation, and research assistants.
Advisory & Review
A second set of eyes on an existing model, data strategy, or vendor proposal, with honest, jargon-free guidance.
Capacity Building
Helping your team get comfortable with the basics of data and ML so the work outlives a single project.
Who this is for
Registered non-profits, NGOs, community initiatives, research groups, and social-impact projects of any size. You don't need a data team or a technical background. If you can describe the problem you're trying to solve, we can figure out the rest together.
Reach out
Tell me a little about your organization and what you're hoping to do. No commitment, no jargon required. The best first step is just a short email.
