School of Computer Science and Information Technology
College of Engineering and Information Technology
Innovative Computer Science PhD student with research experience across cybersecurity, artificial intelligence and software engineering. My research focuses on agentic AI implementation and the application of security principles to support safe and well-informed decisions in implementing real-world agentic AI systems. With my previous experiences and exposures, I am skilled in effectively communicating technical concepts, responsibly leading teams, delivering engaging presentations, and supporting diverse STEM education initiatives. My relevant technical skills include Python, TensorFlow, PyTorch, Scikit-Learn, C++, C#, ReactJS, VueJS, Ruby, prompt engineering and design, ML model design and deployment, network traffic analysis, malware analysis, and AWS cloud security. I am actively seeking casual, industry, and research opportunities where I can utilise my in-depth technical knowledge, interdisciplinary research experience, and a collaborative approach to explore and contribute to projects in artificial intelligence and cybersecurity.
