I am a Ph.D. candidate at the department of Computer Engineering, the University of California at Santa Cruz. I am currently working at VLSI Design & Automation lab at UCSC under Professor Matthew Guthaus. I received my M.A.Sc. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the Concordia University, Montreal, Canada in August 2011, and B.Sc. degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET), Dhaka, Bangladesh, in June 2007. From 2007 to 2009, he worked as a full-time faculty in the department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering of The University of Asia Pacific, Dhaka, Bangladesh.

At UCSC I developed an automated tool for clock routing, optimization using novel current-mode flip-flop by applying
low-power digital circuit design and CAD methodologies. My research interest includes digital & mixed signal circuit design, synchronous & asynchronous VLSI, embedded system design and automation.
