'''Noorfazila Kamal''' was born in Perak, Malaysia in 1979. From 1997 to 2000, she was educated at [[Universiti Teknologi Malaysia]] (UTM), in Johor Bharu, Malaysia, where she obtained a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Engineering with honours. In 2001 she worked as a tutor in the  The Department of Electrical, Electronic and Systems Engineering, [[Universiti Teknologi Malaysia]]. In October 2002, she joined  The Department of Electrical, Electronic and Systems Engineering, [[Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia]].

In October 2005, she was granted a scholarship from Ministry of Higher Education Malaysia to pursue her study at School of Electrical & Electronic Engineering, The University of Adelaide. Here, under the supervision of [[Derek Abbott]] and [[Said F. Al-Sarawi]], she studied toward her PhD in Electronic Engineering. Her PhD work was 
part of the Gigabit Low-cost Integrated Millimeter-wave Radio ([[The GLIMMR project|GLIMMR]]) project, which was funded by an Australian Research Council (ARC) Linkage Research Grant, together with NHEW R&D Pty. Ltd. 

Her research involves frequency synthesis in a millimeter-wave RF transceiver. Noorfazila has delivered presentations at a number of conferences in Adelaide, Canberra, and Kuala Lumpur.
