About Me

I am a Ph.D. student in the Blavatnik School of Computer Science and AI at Tel Aviv University, where I am fortunate to be advised by Prof. Inbal Talgam-Cohen. Prior to beginning my doctoral studies, I completed both my M.Sc. in Computer Science and my B.Sc. in Mathematics and Computer Science at Tel Aviv University. I also interned at Google for two years, during my B.Sc. studies.

My research broadly lies in theoretical computer science. I am particularly interested in algorithmic game theory, contract theory, optimization, stochastic problems, and online algorithms.
