I am a Ph.D. researcher in the Deep Learning Lab at West Virginia University, under the guidance of Prof. Nasser Nasrabadi. My research focuses on developing advanced machine learning algorithms for applications in computer vision and biometrics. With over seven years of research experience, I specialize in areas including multimodal foundation models, facial representation learning, cross-modal face recognition, face retrieval, and continual learning. My work has been published in esteemed venues such as 2 x WACV, TBIOM, TAES, and IJCB.

As I approach the final year of my Ph.D. in 2025, I am actively seeking opportunities for research internships and visiting student positions..
