I'm a PhD student in Computer Science at Northeastern University, Boston, working at the intersection of security and machine learning. My research explores how ML fits into the broader pipeline of secure systems — from reasoning about behavior to enabling stronger defenses.
I’m advised by Dr. Cristina Nita-Rotaru and conduct my research in the NDS2 Lab. Before this, I completed my undergraduate studies at Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) in Dhaka, where I worked under the supervision of Dr. Shohrab Hossain and cultivated my early interest in systems and security research.
Outside of research, I enjoy running 🏃♂️, watching sunsets 🌇, and playing soccer ⚽️. I'm also a passionate supporter of Real Madrid
