Who am I? :D

I am a M.Sc. student in the department of Language Science and Technology at Saarland University in Saarbrücken (Germany). I work as a Research Assistant in the Multilingual Language Technology Lab at German Research Center for AI (DFKI) under the supervision of Dr. Simon Ostermann.

I received my Bachelor's in Linguistics and Pedagogy at Shevchenko Transnistrian State University in Tiraspol (Transnistria), and did an exchange semester at Murray State University (United States) through the Global UGRAD scholarship, a fully-funded American fellowship program. Currently, I am pursuing my Master's in Natural Language Processing (NLP) at Saarland University with the support of German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) scholarship, one of the top scholarhips offered by the European Union.

During my undergrad in Linguistics, I explored the connections between Mathematics, Technology, and Languages. This led me to dive into Artificial Intelligence, specifically focusing on Natural Language Processing (NLP). Despite the challenges, I've gained valuable skills through classes, online courses, and work experience in education, management, and research. It has been a challenging but wonderful journey so far, and I am excited to apply my knowledge and experience to AI projects.
