We are on a mission to help Lebanese Students Abroad! Learn more about Kaffi
I am a Senior Staff R&D Engineer at Synopsys Inc. working with the Custom Design and Physical Verification Group. I received my PhD in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department from the University of Texas at Austin under the supervision of Prof. David Z. Pan @ UTDA research group.
My research is mainly focused on machine learning and its applications in VLSI CAD, autonomous system validation, and medical data analytics.
I serve as the president of Kaffi, a nonprofit organization that aims to support the education of Lebanese students abroad.
