I am a Biostatistics Ph.D. student at Dornsife School of Public Health, Drexel University, under the supervision of Professor Brisa N. Sanchez. I earned my B.Sc. and an MS in Statistics from Jahangirnagar University, Bangladesh. Before joining Drexel as a Ph.D. student, I gained valuable experience working and leading multiple research projects in various organizations. My research journey started during my third year of undergraduate studies. Since then, I've been enhancing my statistical knowledge and research skills through national and international collaborations.

My primary research interest is in developing statistical methods for high-dimensional health datasets. Currently, my method research focuses on developing methods using regularization or feature selection techniques, particularly LASSO adaptiveness, for high-dimensional longitudinal datasets. Most of my work is inspired by and closely related to applications in environmental health sciences, fairness and disparity, Spatial health, social determinants of health, and food environment.
