About Me

Having earned my Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from the University of Denver, I have a rich history of research at the Computer Vision and Robotic Lab, where I’ve been a key contributor since June 2017. My academic journey began at Sharif University of Technology, where I specialized in Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing (NLP). My research spans across NLP, Machine Learning, Neuroscience, and Software Development, with a pronounced emphasis on health data and affective computing.

Beyond my academic pursuits, I have a passion for sharing knowledge and often find joy in teaching what I’ve learned. On a personal note, I relish my time reading, hiking, hitting the gym, and enjoying movies
