I am a Lecturer and Researcher at Central Queensland University (CQU), Sydney, with a Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of New South Wales (UNSW). My research focuses on machine learning and artificial intelligence in video streaming, UAVs, and biomedical data analysis. I have a strong background in mobile networks and cloud computing, and I effectively employ advanced programming skills to manage extensive datasets, demonstrating proficiency in big data analytics.
During the COVID pandemic, I developed and led an online learning strategy for the Mobile Application Development discipline that significantly enhanced student engagement and course completion rates. I excel in collaborative, multidisciplinary environments, as evidenced by my recent projects involving diverse teams of scientists from Chemistry, Biology, and Bioinformatics. Committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion, I actively engage with diverse student groups and foster inclusive learning spaces.
I have published peer-reviewed journal and conference papers, receiving the Best Demo/Presentation Award at ACM-CoNEXT in 2014, the Best Paper Award at IEEE-ITNAC in 2015, the Best Paper Award at the 14th APRU Doctoral Students Conference in 2015, the Highly Commended Paper Award at IEEE-ITNAC in 2018, the Best Paper Award at IEEE-MICC conference in 2019. During my current appointment, I have served as a Discipline Leader of Mobile and Computing Apps discipline at the CQUniversity from 2018 to 2021 and received the CQU’s prestigious Student Voice Award of the year in 2021. I have served extensively within the educational and research community, as an IEE member, academic advisor, reviewer, and area chair for conferences.
