Hi, I'm Syeda Mariam Danish

Exploring AI, Data Insights, and Ethical Governance for Smarter Systems.

About Me

I am an aspiring AI/ML engineer passionate about transforming data into intelligent, human-centered solutions. My journey spans across developing machine learning models for data insights, exploring AI governance, and researching biologically inspired computation and artificial agents. Alongside research, I’ve built practical systems including a hospital management solution, a full-stack inventory system (frontend & backend). With experience in human-computer interaction through Figma prototyping and a strong interest in ethical and sustainable AI, I bring a blend of engineering, design, and research skills to create impactful and future-ready technologies.

Auction House Inventory Manager cover

Auction House Inventory Management System

Built with Java and JavaFX, the application was developed to fulfill the client’s request for a user interface tailored to manage the inventory list of an auction house featuring various collectibles. In alignment with the requirements, a user‑friendly interface with multiple functionalities has been implemented. Additionally, the application provides a comprehensive statistics summary for the collectibles, including year estimates, oldest and newest items, total items, and other essential metrics.

YALLAFITFUSION project cover

YALLAFITFUSION – Lifestyle Goal Achievement Application

Led an Advanced Human–Computer Interaction (HCI) project to design an interactive application supporting lifestyle goal achievement. Developed a multimodal interface incorporating voice, gesture, touch, haptic feedback, and AI assistance, ensuring accessibility for diverse users (e.g., dyslexia‑friendly design). Created a clickable prototype in Figma with gesture and voice commands for intuitive interaction, and conducted user testing using qualitative and quantitative methods (questionnaires, observations) to evaluate usability and gather feedback.
