Biography

 

I am a highly motivated individual with a strong background in computer science. I completed both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in computer science, and I am currently pursuing my Ph.D. My research focus revolves around solving complex routing problems in the transportation industry using cutting-edge technologies such as Artificial Intelligence and Reinforcement Learning, with a particular emphasis on optimizing routes for trucks.

My journey in the professional world began in 2017 when I joined the industry as a Software Engineer. Over these years, I have grown into the senior level and then leadership role, serving as a Team Leader, where I've led and mentored a team of software professionals.

Looking ahead, I have ambitious aspirations of becoming an entrepreneur and launching my own startup. My passion for problem-solving and innovation, combined with my expertise in the field of computer science, motivates me to create novel solutions that can positively impact the world of transportation and beyond.
