Before joining UCL, I was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Technion, working with Prof. Mark Silberstein, and was named an Andrew and Erna Finci Viterbi Postdoctoral Fellow for the year 2024/5. I completed my PhD at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem under the supervision of Prof. Michael Schapira. My PhD research focused on developing safe and deployable ML approaches to network rate control.

During my graduate studies, I interned twice (summer/fall 2018 and 2019) at VMware Research Group in Palo Alto, mentored by Israel Cidon. Earlier in my career (2012-2018), I worked at Altair Semiconductor, where I held roles in software engineering, team leadership, and computer vision research.

I have always believed in the power of a supportive and collaborative community. At the Hebrew University, I founded and ran Off the Record (2014-2020), a graduate seminar where students could practice presenting their research and exchange feedback in a supportive environment. The seminar was incorporated into the Computer Science PhD program as a mandatory course in 2021. In 2023, I co-founded Baot Research, the research branch of a popular Israeli all-female tech group. I also served as a mentor throughout the years via different organizations, such as the aforementioned Baot community, as well as Queen B.
