- Currently building a full-stack web application that leverages reinforcement learning to both analyze a player’s chess games and discover trends in their game history.- Utilizing AlphaZero’s algorithm to analyze the moves played in the game and tuning LangChain to output the repeating mistakes and how to avoid them in future games

- Led project team of four to develop a Large Language Model to create an AI assistant that uses conversational context to interact like a human on range of topics, such as well-being and academic assistance.- Utilized spaCy, NLTK, and scikit-learn libraries to preprocess and vectorize the textual data, enabling efficient feature extraction. - Implemented Parameter-Efficient Fine Tuning on existing LLM models such as GPT-3 and BERT to tune the model to our dataset.

- Implemented multiple machine learning and neural network models for various problems, including regression via ensemble modeling, Computer Vision, and Natural Language Processing tasks.- Trained and validated deep learning models such as Convolutional Neural Networks and Deep Averaging Networks with final testing accuracy of 80%+ using TensorFlow and scikit-learn libraries.- Acquired data preparation, modeling, and evaluation skills using NumPy, Pandas, and Matplotlib, leading to improved data-driven decision-making for critical business problems.

- Collaborated with a team to research the extent of which neurofeedback can enhance the physical rehabilitation of patients with weak or no motor function in large areas of their body.- Extracted 100+ relevant research documents from Web of Science and analyzed them using R; created different bibliometric graphs that depict the growth and relationship between neurofeedback and rehabilitation as well as a sentiment analysis graph of the public view of neurofeedback for physical rehabilitation.- Designed and presented a poster summarizing our findings to over 1000+ people at the Think Neuro Summer Symposium.

- Mentored 800+ students to help them understand computer systems and software tools, including C pointers, dynamic memory allocation, and bitwise operations.- Assisted in assembling assignments to administer to students and tutored students throughout the year in debugging and understanding course material in one-on-one sessions with a 100% positive feedback rate.- Organized records of academic performance to address areas of improvement for students for weekly assignments; proctored and graded 1000+ midterm exams.

- Worked with a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M-based STM32 microcontroller for embedded systems development using C-Programmed, debugged, and interfaced with electronic speed controllers for brushless DC motor control, UART with interrupts to receive data from Raspberry Pi, I2C for reading data from Inertial Measurement Units, and CAN bus for sending motor commands then receiving data from motor encoders.-Used Kalman Filter to sensor fuse accelerometer and gyroscope data from IMU to filter noise causing drift after 1 minute.

- Shadowed and worked under different departments for the largest education technologies company in Saudi Arabia. - Worked under the networking team in a Networking Operations Center; worked on SolarWinds to contribute to a 100M+ SAR national monitoring project for all the networking devices in 20,000 public schools.- Orchestrated the gathering of technical requirements for the Presales team, leading to the preparation of 15+ design documents, 10 cost sheets, and 20 proposals; instrumental in securing 20M+ SAR in new business deals

- Year-long program that focuses on adaptive leadership and developing initiative by creating a capstone project that aims to solve an ongoing social justice issue as well as analyzing my group’s dynamics.- Led a team of international students to create an initiative that targets first-generation students’ lack of information on US universities and processes by providing accurate information regarding the differences between the UCSD colleges.- Built an interactive quiz that determines which colleges best suits the user and co-created the project website; presented to Assistant Director of the ELP program and Coordinator of Student Activities.
