Tanvir Ahmed

I am a CS undergraduate student at United International University (UIU) with a strong academic focus and a passion for research. Currently, I serve as an Undergraduate Teaching Assistant at UIU and Research Intern at CRISiSLab, (JCDR, Massey University, NZ), working with Dr. Catalina Miranda on computational disaster resilience projects. My work bridges the gap between algorithmic theory and real-world AI applications — from numerical modelling of timber connectors to building ML pipelines for hazard analysis. Beyond research, I am fascinated by the elegance of Data Structures and Algorithms, having solved hundreds of problems across various online judges.
