Biography

I am a PhD Candidate in Accounting at Essex Business School, with a strong interest in the applications and impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) in accounting and financial analysis. My research focuses on leveraging cutting-edge AI/ML methodologies to enhance financial reporting, auditing, and decision-making processes. With a solid foundation in mathematics, statistics, and data analytics, I have actively explored advanced quantitative methods, including real analysis (measure theory), stochastic processes, and statistical inference, to support my research. My goal is to bridge the gap between traditional accounting practices and technological advancements, contributing to more efficient, transparent, and data-driven financial systems. I am always open to discussions, collaborations, and innovative research ideas in the intersection of accounting, finance, and AI. Feel free to connect and reach out!
