About

I am a 5th-year PhD candidate in Computer Science at the University of Virginia (UVa) and a proud member of the UVa LESS lab. My PhD work is advised by Dr. Matthew Dwyer. I also collaborate closely with Dr. Sebastian Elbaum. My research interests include Software Testing and Verification for safety-critical systems, Automated Bug Repair, and the application of AI/ML techniques in Software Engineering. Prior to my PhD studies, I earned my undergraduate degree in Computer Science and Engineering from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET). Following this, I worked as a software development engineer at REVE Systems.
