(December 2019 - present) I am a PhD student at the University of Freiburg in the Algorithms and Complexity group. I earned both my M.Sc. in discrete mathematics and algebra and B.Sc. in mathematics from the Lebanese University, Faculty of Sciences in Beirut, Lebanon.
My current research interests lie in graph theory and distributed graph algorithms.
