I am a lecturer in the Radio Systems Group (EEMCS).

I received my Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering in 2023 from University of Twente, the Netherlands, my M.Sc. in Electrical-Electronics & Telecommunications Engineering in 2014 from University Technology Malaysia, Malaysia, and my B.Sc. in Electronics and Communications Engineering in 2011 from Damascus University, Syria.

My Broad and interdisciplinary background ranges from communication theory, signal processing, PHY layer, software-defined radio, and channel measurements, characterization & emulation; to electronic circuits, computer architecture and embedded systems; and hands-on experience in VNA, VSA, VSG, DSO, AWG and RF test and measurement automation.
