Short Bio

I was born and raised in Tunisia, where I remained until finishing high school. I graduated with highest honors from my Bachelor's degree in computer engineering from Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal in Canada, and the "Diplome d’Ingenieur" degree from Telecom ParisTech (ENST) in Paris, France, graduating both in 2016. In 2018, I received my Master’s degree in artificial intelligence from the University of Toronto in Canada. I have worked in the data science industry for over 5 years, during which I was a successful graduate of the 2017/18 AI cohort of the prestigious Creative Destruction Lab, and ultimately co-founded AIP Labs. I am also a research associate at the Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) department at the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Canada.
