I am currently an associate professor at Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) in Malaysia (

). I earned an M.Eng. degree in electronics from the University of Surrey, Guildford, U.K. in 2008, followed by a Ph.D. in electrical, electronic, and systems engineering from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia in 2014. Prior to my academic role, I was a spacecraft engineer at Astronautic Technology (M) Sdn Bhd in 2008, where I contributed to various small-class satellite development and R&D projects. Currently, I lead the Antenna Research Center (ARC-UiTM), a prominent research lab at UiTM focused on pioneering research in antennas, electromagnetic analysis, and communication subsystems.
