Over the years, his work has led to remarkable achievements, including 7 peer-reviewed journal articles, 2 preprints, and a book, all published in some of the most reputable journals in the field. His research has garnered recognition globally, with over 316 citations on Google Scholar, placing him in the top 1% of most highly cited authors in the past decade.
His in-depth research into software systems and architecture has established him as an authority in the field, as seen by the frequent invitations he receives to review and evaluate his peers’ work, having done so at least 18 times.
He is currently focused on transforming traditional banking through an open banking transformation framework and digital-first banking architecture. His work has already made significant contributions through the use of different frameworks and architecture. It is found that his ongoing research is vital for improving digital access and promoting technology-driven customer interactions within the field. His past and current achievements suggest he will continue to bring substantial benefits to the United States.
He has received 4 letters of recommendation from respected experts in the field, further validating his outstanding contributions. One excerpt from a recommendation reads:
“Altogether, [Client’s] outstanding achievements have tremendous significance for the software engineering research community in the United States and abroad.
