I am an Assistant Professor at the University of Connecticut with experience spanning academic leadership, applied research, product development, and engineering. I also served as Director of the Computer Science program at UConn Stamford during 2024-2025, where I helped lead program growth, academic operations, and student-focused initiatives. Before joining UConn, I held academic, research, and technical roles across the United States, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.

My work combines AI, Educational Technology, Cloud Computing, Embedded Systems, Genetic Design Automation, and Computer Architecture to build practical tools and learning systems that solve real problems. As an award-winning educator, I focus on using AI and analytics in the curriculum to improve learning outcomes, support student success, and create more effective, scalable teaching approaches.

Across academia and industry, I have taught more than 1,150 students, developed open resources downloaded 13,000+ times worldwide, created multiple EdTech tools, contributed to startups, and delivered work ranging from cloud-based scientific platforms to embedded and hardware-software systems. My background brings together technical depth, teaching innovation, and real-world execution.
