Biography
I hold a Bachelors degree in Software Engineering, where my primary focus was on web application development and full-stack application design. I further specialised in Artificial Intelligence during my Masters degree at the University of Essex, gaining extensive knowledge and hands-on experience in Machine Learning, Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Neural Networks, as well as Image Segmentation and Processing. Currently, I am working as a KTP Associate, managing a collaborative innovation project between the University of Essex and &Element. This project leverages AI-powered cameras to monitor customer engagement in the retail sector, providing real-time analytics via a dynamic dashboard. In parallel with my professional role, I am pursuing a PhD in Computer Science at the University of Essex. My research is focused on Computer Vision and Image Processing, with an emphasis on advancing real-time videow analysis techniques. My technical expertise spans Computer Vision, NLP, Python, and full-stack web development, including proficiency in the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React.js, Node.js). I am particularly passionate about the intersection of AI and practical applications, aiming to develop solutions that drive innovation and improve user experiences across various domains.
