Research Interests:
I am interested in the intricate intersection of mathematics education and artificial
intelligence/machine learning models. I seek to unravel new pedagogical dimensions
that empower students to grasp complex mathematical concepts with efficacy through
mathematical reasoning frameworks and symbolic representations.
