About

I am a PhD candidate at School of Computer Science and AI, Tel Aviv University where I am fortunate to be advised by Inbal Talgam-Cohen.

I hold a BSc (summa cum laude) and an MSc (magna cum laude) in Computer Science from Tel Aviv University. During my master's studies, I had the privilege of being advised by and working with Inbal Talgam-Cohen and Anupam Gupta. Previously, I worked as a software engineer at Google, working on a distributed high scale file system in the cloud.

Some of my research interests include Beyond Worst Case Analysis, Algorithmic Game Theory, Contract Theory, Learning Theory, Learning-Augmented Algorithms, Stochastic Combinatorial Optimization and Robust Statistics.
