At LBEF College, I taught Design Thinking and Innovation, System Analysis & Design, Human-computer Interaction, and Project Management. I also conducted a Figma workshop on UI/UX Design and supervised final-year IT Research Projects.

At ISMT Group of Colleges, I taught computing modules and supervised undergraduate research projects using qualitative and quantitative methods. I also managed exams and assignments, conducted internal verifications, and coordinated with Pearson External Verifiers.

At Padmashree International College and Lumbini Academic College, I delivered course materials and hands-on instruction in Software Engineering and System Analysis & Design, while supervising student projects. Earlier, as a Teaching Assistant at Kingston University, I supported UX tutorials and practical sessions, including prototyping and research.

My academic work includes MSc degrees in User Experience Design and Information Systems. My research spans patient handover, e-commerce user experience, human-centred design for AI-enabled wearables, and digital health.
