I am a Machine Learning Applied Scientist in AWS Generative AI innovation Center. Prior to that, I did my postdoc in the Data Science and Learning Divison (DSL) at Argonne National Laboratory. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Nevada Reno in 2021. I earned my M.S and BS in Computer Science and Telecommunication Engineering from KOC University Istanbul, Turkey, and FAST National University Islamabad Pakistan respectively in 2012 and 2016. I also, worked as a research scientist intern at Nokia Bell Labs Stuttgart, Germany in 2020 and as an IT consultant at IBM Islamabad, Pakistan 2013-2014.My research interest includes Machine Learning in general and specifically, I am interested in Generative AI, Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing, and Graph Neural Networks for solving complex problems.
