I am an Assistant Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Michigan-Dearborn, specializing in the intersection of wireless communications, cybersecurity, and AI-driven network management. My research focuses on developing secure and resilient NextG networks, cyber-physical systems, and ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC). I work on network slicing, resource orchestration, and cyber risk management, tackling key challenges in 5G/6G security, industrial automation, and smart infrastructure to enhance the reliability and security of mission-critical applications.
