About Me
I completed my PhD degree from the School of Computer Science at University College Dublin (UCD) in 2023 under the guidance of Dr. David Lillis. At the moment, I am working as a Assistant Professor/Lecturer at Maynooth University. In addition to my research, I have a keen interest in creating and open sourcing projects that I find challenging to obtain online.
