"I completed a Bachelors degree in Computer Science followed by Masters degree in Information Technology and Doctoral degree in Software Engineering with a thesis entitled "Novice Programmer and Data Analytics". Primary objective of my PhD study was to use machine learning algorithms and data mining techniques to predict correctly (in early stages of the semester) which students in the classroom are more likely to be in danger of failing a subject or dropping out.

After completing my PhD, I was working as a postdoc research fellow at Macquarie university. The goal of that program was to explore the application of text mining and natural language processing in automating the analysis of students text data in Learning Management Systems. In addition, that project was heavily focused on exploration of technology-enhanced pedagogy and how technology can enable a smoother learning environment for both the educators and learners. In 2021, I started to work on a data science intense postdoc role for a duration of 2 years with a focus on the use of Information Retrieval and Skills Analytics in improving the skills gap between the university curricula and job market skills requirements.

Currently I'm teaching a variety of subjects over IT and Science faculties at UTS."
