About

I am a final-year B.Sc. (Hons) Information Systems student at the University of Colombo School of Computing. My work focuses on dependable agentic AI, software systems, automated security analysis, and human-centered AI for learning. I expect to graduate in May 2027.

Research

Engineering Intern (Research), WSO2

–

Formalised a recovery model for LLM-based agentic systems introducing compensatory rollback, and designed an experimental evaluation by extending REALM-Bench and tau2-bench with executable environments and automated disruption engines.

Research Volunteer, WSO2

–present

Working with Dr. Srinath Perera and Dr. Suranga Seneviratne on LLM planning for automated penetration testing.

Conversation Design & Content Strategy Associate, ConvoGrid AI

–

Conducted data annotation, model evaluation, and analysis of human–AI interaction patterns in a part-time remote role.

Selected Projects

RAC: Agent Compensation & Rollback Library

A framework-independent compensation and rollback library for ReAct agents. It records actions and compensates for completed operations when later steps fail, helping preserve consistency in agentic workflows.

SELAR: Semantic Linking for Active Retention

A theory-grounded generative-AI reading system that surfaces argument-level links across a learner’s document library. The project includes a controlled pilot measuring retention after 24 hours and seven days.

MediQ

An AI-assisted first-aid guidance system and global finalist in the IEEE IES Generative AI Challenge 2024. My primary contribution was the design of generative user interfaces that adapt to situational context.
