01 — About

Researcher. Engineer.
Educator.

I'm a recent MSc Artificial Intelligence graduate from the University of Essex, with a passion for pushing the boundaries of NLP, Computer Vision, and Agricultural AI. My academic journey spans from Bangladesh to England, grounded in a strong 3.61 CGPA BSc from SUST.

I've contributed to 8 peer-reviewed publications at prestigious venues including EMNLP, COLING, and multiple IEEE conferences. This research experience — spanning Bangla NLP, disease detection, and crop prediction — reflects my ability to turn complex ideas into publishable, reproducible science.

Before coming to Essex, I spent 1.5 years as a Lecturer at R. P. Shaha University, teaching core AI & CS concepts to 40–60 students while co-supervising final-year projects that led to 6 IEEE papers. That experience sharpened my technical communication and collaborative research skills.

I am actively seeking PhD positions in AI/ML/NLP as well as junior AI engineering roles starting mid-2026. If you're looking for a motivated, publication-backed researcher who bridges theory and practice — let's talk.
