Biography

I am a Ph.D. student at the Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science in the Electrical Engineering Department at UCLA. I am a member of the Laboratory of Algorithmic Research on Network Information flow working with Prof. Christina Fragouli. Before joining UCLA, I received my Bachelor’s and Masters degrees from Alexandria University in Electronics and Communications Engineering in 2011 and 2014, respectively, where I was advised by Prof. Karim Seddik.
