I am a Mathematician specializing in Graph Theory. My broader research interests include Operations Research, Combinatorial Optimization, and Mathematical Logic (specifically games on graphs, finite model theory, and descriptive complexity). I am currently teaching at the University of Toronto Mississauga. Before that I worked as a postdoctoral researcher at WANOPT (Waterloo Analytics and Optimization Lab) and at the department of Combinatorics and Optimization, University of Waterloo  with professors Bruce Richter  and Bertrand Guenin .

I obtained my PhD degree in September 2022 from the University of Waterloo under the supervision of Bruce Richter. In my PhD I studied edge-connectivity in infinite graphs, and previously my master's was on list-colouring, also at Waterloo (2017). Before that I wrote my first master's thesis in the subjects of Finite Model Theory and Descriptive Complexity at Cairo University (2014) under the supervision of Wafik Boulos Lotfallah. I obtained my Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics in 2011 from Cairo University.

Here are some snaps fom my academic life :)

On March 9th, 2024, I had the honour of being a speaker in the Careers in Academia panel at the Waterloo Women in Math workshop Academia or Industry? Leveraging your Graduate Student Experience 2024.

Giving a talk on infinite graphs!

My Phd Graduation :)
