What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a remote AI role, or an on-site opportunity in a MENA country, where I can build robust, evaluated models and bring applied AI systems into real use.

I've built and evaluated AI systems at MITRE and Northrop Grumman, focusing on model robustness, adversarial testing, scalable deployment, and AI features for large C++/Python research platforms.

I also founded and shipped Sihha Fit, an AI fitness and nutrition app using Google Gemini, image-based food recognition, React Native, Expo, and Firebase. Alongside product work, I teach graduate NLP, robotics, computer vision, AI, and algorithms at Columbia University and Bowie State University.

Work history, roles, and key accomplishments

Artificial Intelligence Specialist

The MITRE Corporation

Nov 2019 - Apr 2021 (1 year 5 months)

Worked on the security and robustness of machine-learning models in sensitive systems, including evaluation under adversarial conditions. Deployed the resulting model as a Docker container with attention to resource use and scalability, and extracted analytical insight from large COVID-19 datasets with SQL pipelines.
