I am a Graduate Student working towards my PhD degree in Computer Science. I received my B.Sc in Computer Science from the American University in Cairo in 2002.

My current interests include performance modeling and projection for Virtualized workloads. My current advisor is Tim Sherwood.

I previously worked on developing efficient profiling systems.
