<p>
I am currently a tenure-track Assistant Professor of AI at the Pennsylvania State University, Great Valley, USA. I am also a member of the faculty of the Graduate School, Pennsylvania State University. Previously, I worked at the Applied AI Institute, Deakin University, Australia (2021-2025), Yahoo! Japan Research (2017-2018) and Samsung Vietnam Mobile R&D Center (2014-2016). I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Deakin University (2021). My research contributions and academic excellence have been recognized with multiple awards.

<h3>Research Interests</h3>
<p>
My research interests focus on deep learning and machine learning techniques for <em>visual perception</em>, and <em>vision and language reasoning</em>. These capabilities are the key elements required of the next generation of virtual assistant systems. Real-world applications of these systems include security and safety services, healthcare.
