I am a PhD candidate in Computer Science at Birkbeck, University of London, with a focus on cybersecurity, data privacy, and multi-agent AI systems. My research explores big data analytics, federated learning, and technology cycles, particularly in healthcare and tech trend forecasting. With an MSc in Cyber Security (Distinction) from UWE Bristol, I bring expertise in data science, penetration testing, and AI-driven security.
Inspired by Dr. Paul D. Yoo, I aim to bridge AI innovations with real-world healthcare and technology trend forecasting applications.

The protection of computer systems and networks from attack by malicious actors that may result in unauthorized information disclosure.
That uses statistics, scientific computing, scientific methods, processes, algorithms, and systems to extrapolate knowledge and insights from structured, and unstructured data.
A field of inquiry devoted to understanding and building methods that "learn" – methods that leverage data to improve performance on some set of tasks.
That is able to perform tasks that ordinarily require human intelligence.
I’m thrilled to announce that I have successfully completed the RIT Cybervsr certification! This achievement would not have been possible without the guidance, support, and expertise of my research advisors, Prof. H. B. Acharya, Ph.D. and collaboration with his diligent Ph.D. student Gursimran Singh.
Additionally, under the guidance of Prof. Shanchieh Jay Yang, and with the assistance of his program coordinators and guest speakers, we received thoughtful advice and gained profound insights into our research.
Their unwavering commitment to excellence and innovation has been instrumental in my growth and understanding of the field. A heartfelt thank you to all of them and to everyone else who has supported me along this journey!
