About Me

I am an Applied Scientist at Amazon. My research focuses on the intersection of natural language processing and machine/deep learning. In 2022, I graduated with a Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of North Texas.

I also have a master's degree in Computer Science from Tennessee Tech and a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Engineering from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology.
