BSc Eng. (Hons) (Moratuwa)
I am a Computer Science and Engineering graduate, currently pursuing a PhD at the University of Melbourne. My research focuses on developing AI-driven decision support systems for vestibular schwannoma treatment, leveraging computer vision to analyze preoperative MRI and clinical data. With industry experience at Sysco LABS and WSO2, plus international research in Japan on multimodal dialogue systems, I aim to bridge academia and industry through impactful, interpretable AI solutions that enhance clinical outcomes and foster innovation.
