I am a Final year PhD candidate in Human-Computer Interaction at the University of Melbourne, exploring the interaction between designers and AI-powered creativity tools. My professional journey includes experience as a University Lecturer and a User Experience (UX) Designer in Sri Lanka. These roles have sharpened my ability to apply a rigorous academic approach and practical insight. Skilled in design thinking and user-centric research, I adeptly employ quantitative and qualitative methods to enrich my investigations. My ambition is to develop my expertise in this ever-evolving field of Human-AI interaction. Alongside my research, I am dedicated to mentoring and empowering students in Sri Lanka and beyond to achieve excellence in the dynamic realms of interaction design and research.
