I am an assistant professor at the Faculty of Science at Al Maaref University. I hold a master’s degree in Software Engineering from the “Université Antonine” of Beirut, Lebanon, obtained in 2014. I also hold a Ph.D. degree in “Informatique, Telecommunications, et Electronique” from “Pierre and Marie Curie – Université Sorbonne Université”, Paris, France, which I obtained in 2018.

I am a member of the IEEE. Over the years, I have published numerous peer-reviewed articles. My contributions to the field reached more than 29 scientific articles published in prestigious journals, conferences, and books, as well as 16 participations in conferences, workshops, and seminars. Big Data, Machine Learning, Data Stream Processing and Analysis, and Data Quality are among my primary research interests.

Furthermore, I gained important knowledge through different research projects between France and Lebanon, which gave me the opportunity to apply my research and analysis skills to real-world problems. In addition to my research, I have experience developing and teaching courses in the areas of Computer Programming, Software Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Data Analysis.
