I am currently a Postdoctoral Research Associate and Lead Interactive AI Technology and Systems Researcher (Healthcare) at the Human Technology Interaction (HTI) Lab at the University of Southern California (USC). Alongside my research, I serve as an academic instructor at the USC Iovine and Young Academy, teaching IDSN 543: Augmented Intelligence. My current research, in collaboration with Johnson & Johnson MedTech, focuses on co-developing AI-powered digital assistant tools for post-operative teams to predict surgical site outcomes. I am also collaborating with clinicians from the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab to develop a digital assistant for assessing human movement performance in upper-body rehabilitation.

 Previously, I worked at the Interactive Neuro-rehabilitation (INR) Lab at USC as a research assistant, where my work focused on understanding upper extremity stroke survivors' movement patterns and developing digital assistants for expert clinicians.

I graduated from the Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology with a B.Sc. in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. There, I designed a low-cost automated device for vein detection and blood drawing, and developed a musical beat detection system utilizing advanced signal analysis.

In my free time, I enjoy hiking, playing cricket and soccer, reading, and listening to music.
