Welcome to my Official Website
Welcome to my official website — fully self-hosted, containerized, and deployed on production-grade infrastructure with a CI/CD pipeline. Everything here was built by me, from Kubernetes (K3s) to JavaScript, and everything in between.
If you’re curious about my work or this setup, feel free to chat with my built-in AI assistant. It’s always happy to help.
About Me
I’m a driven AI Researcher & Engineer with a Ph.D. in Machine Learning and over a decade of experience designing, training, and deploying AI models.
I earned my B.Sc. in Mathematics and Computer Science from the University of Montréal, followed by a Ph.D. under Professor Alain Tapp at the world-renowned Mila laboratory founded by Yoshua Bengio.
The Chatbot
This chatbot is an experimental project and a work in progress. It is designed to answer questions about me and my blog posts. It’s not perfect yet, so take its answers with a grain of salt, but it’s improving with every update.
The Infrastructure
This website runs on a single Virtual Private Server (VPS) powered by K3s, a lightweight Kubernetes distribution. Traefik handles ingress routing, while the backend is built in Python using FastAPI and packaged with Docker.
Static content is served by an Nginx pod, the chatbot runs on llama-server, performance metrics are visualized with Grafana, and MLflow tracks model experiments and progress.
You can also explore:
- Grafana to monitor real-time server performance
- MLflow to follow the chatbot’s development and experiments
