BIO
Being an academic since 2004 and several years of industry experience as a Business Development Manager as well as a Systems Engineer, I bring a unique blend of expertise into my teaching and guidance. My current research interests and projects are in Digital Twin Technology, Artificial Intelligence and networking.
My research also include development of computer applications for various requirements, learning analytics in education related projects and digital disruption. With these research areas, I aim to develop practical and actionable solutions to the betterment of the respective research issue.
The use of computer applications is predominantly looked from a health sector. Learning analytics research aims to improve student engagement in online content with a special focus on blended subjects. In both these areas, special attention will be given into investigating how such digital disruptions helps or hinder the relevant processes involved.
I am passionate about motivating and helping students develop skills relevant to their studies and beyond into their career of choice.
