I am a Postdoctoral Associate at MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence
Laboratory (CSAIL),
working with Professors Jonathan Ragan-Kelley and Justin
Solomon. My research focuses on the intersection of
high-performance computing (HPC), scientific computation, and graphics. I am particularly
interested in designing systems, algorithms, and data structures that accelerate complex,
irregular, and unstructured problems. Additionally, I work on creating abstractions and
programming models that bridge the gap between high performance and ease of use.
Prior to joining MIT, I was a Senior Research Scientist at Autodesk Research in Toronto,
Canada,
from 2021 to 2024. In 2024, I earned my Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the
University of California, Davis, under the supervision of Professor John D. Owens, and
received an
M.Sc. from the same department in 2020. I obtained my B.Sc. in Marine Engineering and Naval
Architecture from Alexandria University, Egypt, in 2013.
