Dedicated Ph.D. candidate at the University of Idaho specializing in Bioinformatics, Human-Computer Interaction, Database Management, Machine Learning, and Large-Scale Web Software Development, working under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Hasan Jamil in the SmartDB Lab.

My research focuses on developing AI-driven tools to advance healthcare and environmental management by improving bioinformatics workflows and making complex biological and clinical data more accessible. I have previously developed commercial software solutions, intelligent systems for biologists, visual workflow platforms for scientists, and auto-grading tools for database education, all emphasizing intuitive, user-centered design.

I am a Student Member of ACM and IEEE, and an active committee member of the Bangla Language Processing (BLP) Workshop. I have also served as a reviewer for several IEEE and ACM conferences, contributing to the academic research community through peer review and professional service.
