Yael Demers

Software Developer & Researcher

I'm a software developer and researcher specializing in building exceptional digital experiences. Currently focused on creating accessible, human-centered products at the intersection of design and engineering.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me exploring machine learning research, contributing to open-source projects, or diving into papers that push the boundaries of what's possible.
