I'm a Ph.D. student at CMU SAILING Lab in the Carnegie Mellon School of Computer Science. I am advised by and work with Prof. Eric P. Xing. I also supervised and mentored by Prof. Le Song (MBZUAI), Prof. Pengtao Xie (UCSD), and Caleb N. Ellington (CMU).

I completed my Masters in Computer Science at the University of Maryland at College Park (UMD), with a major in AI/ML (Computer Vision and Machine Perception). Here I was advised by Prof. Christopher Metzler and worked in the Intelligent Sensing lab.

I graduated with a B.Sc. (Engg.) in Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET). I completed my undergrad thesis with a major in AI/ML, under the supervision of Prof. M. Saifur Rahman and Prof. Md. Shamsuzzoha Bayzid.
