01 — About

Systems-minded, built for the edge.

I am a recent graduate with a B.S. in Computer Engineering from the American University of Sharjah, where coursework in cloud computing, machine learning, and embedded systems shapes how I think of and develop functional end-to-end pipelines and durable systems.

That thread runs through my work, from my senior design project to my internship experiences in software engineering and IT solutions.
