I am currently an Assistant Professor at IPSA. I earned my Ph.D. in Telecommunications Engineering in 2023 through a joint program between the Lebanese University and Saint Joseph University of Beirut. Prior to that, I obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Computer and Communication Engineering from IUL University in 2018, followed by a Master’s degree in Telecommunications Engineering from the Lebanese University in 2019.

During my master’s program, my thesis addressed resource and power allocation challenges in relayed Device-to-Device (D2D) communications. Using the MATLAB Optimization Toolbox, I successfully formulated and solved the allocation problem. For my Ph.D. dissertation, I focused on resource allocation and optimization in Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT), proposing a resource-efficient scheduling algorithm to tackle scheduling complexities. In addition, I developed a novel four-sided many-to-many matching game algorithm as an alternative approach to enhance scheduling efficiency.

Following my doctoral studies, I conducted postdoctoral research at Paris-Saclay, where I focused on resource optimization in cognitive radio networks. My research interests broadly lie in resource allocation and optimization for next-generation wireless communication networks.
