About Me
I’m Sanja, pronounced as Sanya, a university lecturer and AI specialist passionate about helping professionals and organizations unlock the potential of machine learning, deep learning, and computer vision.
Through my work as a Computer Vision & AI Instructor, I design and teach advanced, hands-on courses for professionals through university extension and executive education programs. My teaching bridges academic research and real-world applications, from convolutional networks and transformers to generative AI and multimodal systems, guiding learners to move beyond code and build an intuitive understanding of how modern AI systems see, reason, and create.
As a speaker at IEEE, WiDS, and leading industry forums, I champion continuous learning and responsible innovation in AI.
My specialty is turning complex AI concepts into accessible, practical, and transformative learning experiences, empowering every learner to apply AI with confidence, creativity, and purpose.
