Bio:

Pursuing a B.S. in Computer Science with a minor in Social Entrepreneurship, I am inspired by creating innovative solutions using algorithmic models. With a keen interest in neurohaptics and human-computer interaction (HCI), I hope to merge my passions to establish an admirable future for tomorrow. As a current member of the Future of Coding with AI (VIP) and the Saudi Student Association, I strive to be in touch with both my academic and cultural communities. Being involved in these initiatives fuels my drive to be an active contributor in my environment. As I have chosen to delve into SDG 9 with the GLASS program, it is a prominent goal of mine to hone in on that SDG by utilizing my technical acumen and leveraging the resources provided to me by GLASS to breakthrough barriers to innovation and sustainable development. Ending it off with a fun fact, I am an avid traveler and have visited over 5 countries in the past two years, which has greatly expanded my perspective on global issues and cultures.
