I am a PhD Candidate at the University of Michigan Rackham Graduate School, doing research on thermal imaging processing for Human Behavior Modeling at the CIS lab directed by Professor Mohamed Abouelenien. I obtained my Master of Science in Computer and Information Science from the University of Michigan Dearborn with a GPA of 4.0.

I am also a Graduate Student Instructor:

1.   CIS 5570 - Introduction to Big Data. This course provides an overview of what big data is and explores its characteristics. It introduces the fundamental technologies, platforms, and methods that enable Big Data analysis, and covers how to acquire, store, and analyze very large amounts of information to complete Big Data analysis tasks. Students will gain hands-on experience in real-world applications of Big Data such as in cyber-physical systems and health informatics. 

2.  CIS 285 - Software Engineering Tools. This course introduces phases of the software engineering life cycle and their associated development and management tools, including tools for software analysis and design, software coding and debugging, software configuration management and version control, software quality assurance, and software defect management.

I am interested in projects at the intersection of computer science and the medical field.

My primary research interests are in the fields of thermal imaging processing and machine learning, with a special focus on human behavior understanding, modeling, and monitoring.
