Senior Lecturer - Grade II

Department of Physics

I currently work as a senior lecturer at the department of physics, OUSL. I got my Ph.D. from the University of Colombo.

I like to teach others. I also like to invent new things.
I believe in inter deciplinary research. My research is not limited to physics. They vary from studying animal behaviors to predicting the share market.
