About me!
Hi, I am a third-year PhD student at the University of Notre Dame Du Lac. Prior to this, I completed my Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Engineering at BRAC University, Dhaka in December 2021. After that, I worked as an Analog Layout Design Engineer at Ulkasemi for a year and then worked as an AMS Layout Engineer at Synapse for a year.
Currently, I am part of Dr. Siddharth Joshis’ Intelligent MicroSystems Lab (IMSL). My focus of research ranges from radio-frequency-based communication systems to different types of Analog and Digital Compute-in-Memory chips.
