Hello World

I'm Lucas Mendes Barbosa, a Data Scientist specializing in LLMs, NLP, and OCR.

About

Hi! I'm Lucas, a Data & AI professional with 4+ years of experience in LLMs, NLP, data pipelines, and visualization. I use Python, SQL, AWS/GCP, and automation to turn data into smart, impactful solutions. Graduated in Computer Science and currently pursuing a postgrad in Machine Learning Engineering, I'm passionate about understanding how AI truly works—especially in NLP and Explainable AI. One of my favorite projects merges music and AI through emotion recognition, which inspired the name Music MoodAI — see more in the Back to the Future tab. I believe in a data-driven culture and love sharing knowledge to support better decision-making.
