I am currently an assistant professor with the computer science department at Khalifa University, United Arab Emirates. Prior to joining Khalifa University, I have worked as a senior research engineer with the advanced networking team at Huawei Technologies Canada, Ottawa, Canada, from 2020 to 2023.

I have received my Ph.D. degree with the BBCR lab at the University of Waterloo under the supervision of Prof. Weihua Zhuang. My thesis focuses on the orchestration and provisioning of network function virtualization-enabled multicast services.

I have received my MASc degree from Simon Fraser University under the supervision of Prof. Jie Liang and Prof. Sami Muhaidat. My thesis is on the performance analysis of generalized and composite wireless fading channels through the use of mixture distributions.
