Hello good people! Welcome to my world...

I am currently a PhD Candidate in the Department of Computer Science (IDI) at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). My doctoral research builds upon my earlier role as a Researcher in the same department, which followed the completion of my master's in Erasmus Mundus Joint Master’s Degree in Computational Color and Spectral Imaging (EMJMD COSI) as an Erasmus Mundus Scholar. My research interest includes 3D Reconstruction, Image Processing, Computer Vision, and Deep Learning.

Prior to joining NTNU, I was a Research Student in the Department of Information Science and Technology at Kyushu University, Japan as a Japanese Government (MEXT) Scholar. During this research period, I worked on applying machine learning to medical data analysis to improve the performance of remote healthcare systems in the Social Tech Lab with my supervisor Dr. Ashir Ahmed.

Previously, I worked as a Software Engineer at NAMS Innovation and as a Jr. Software Engineer at Grameen Communications. Prior to joining NAMS, I worked as a Teaching Assistant (TA) at United International University for two years. I also worked as a Software Intern at NAMS Innovation.

I completed my undergraduate from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at United International University in October 2019. During my undergrad, I founded 'The PowerTech Girls' - a knowledge-sharing forum that encourages girls’ participation in technology. Consequently, for my academic results and playing a leadership role in expanding women’s participation in technology, I was awarded the prestigious Google Women Techmakers Scholarship 2019 in Sydney, Australia.

I love reading books, playing guitar, art and crafting to cut out my stress.
