Palestinian Computer and Software Engineer

|

I am a Palestinian software and robotics engineer with passions and hobbies for engineering, agtech, design, culture studies, language, photography / videography, AI + ML, emulation + vintage video games, and much more.

About Me

Palestinian born and raised in California, I grew up between cultures with deep roots to my family, friends, and community. With the weight of my heritage, I navigated my career prospects with my dreams oriented in both the preservation + fight for my Palestinian culture, and also my passion for technology and computer engineering. Graduated University of California, Merced in 2023 with a Bachelors in Computer Science and Engineering. I currently work at Milano Technical Group Inc in Merced, California, building amazing robotic platforms, vision technology, autonomy systems, and much more in agricultural and industrial applications. On the side, I also work on impactful projects that hit home for me, including contributing work to ethical based applications like Boycat.
