About
I am a doctoral student at Tampere University (Finland) working on empirical software engineering.
My research interests include:- Applying observational study methodologies such as cohort studies in emprical SE
- Technical debt analysis tools

Experience
July 2018 -
I am doing my doctoral thesis on technical debt and applying observational study methodologies on empirical software engineering.
January 2018 - June 2018
I worked as the main assistant on course ”Basic programming” which included both teaching and improving the course materials. I also worked on a project where I used machine learning to analyzeelectricity and building automation data from one of the buildings on campus.
August 2016 - January 2018
My task was to develop the software’s estimators and categorizers using machine learning methods.
