Professional Summary

NIS Almaty student who speaks 7 languages, solves 7×7 Rubik’s cubes, and plays the dombra while exploring how large language models (LLMs) behave across cultures. I research multilingual NLP and will present my work at international student conferences. I also built DragNScroll — a TikTok-style AI platform that experiments with the new ways of learning Chinese. I enjoy finding unusual ways to combine language, algorithms, and learning.

Target Projects & Roles

Cross-Lingual LLM Bias Research

Independent Researcher✦ Featured

Studying how large language models such as Jais-30B and Llama-3 change response depth, confidence, and structure when prompts are translated across English, Russian, Chinese, and Kazakh. Built a multilingual prompt dataset and evaluation pipeline to measure differences in response length, structural complexity, and informational density across languages.
