I trained as a physician in Egypt before cancer genomics pulled me into computational biology. Each chapter exposed problems the last field could not solve. The clinic needed better diagnostics, the lab needed better tools, and operations needed better automation.

At City of Hope, I earned a Ph.D. in Computational Biology and Bioinformatics, developing machine learning methods for single-cell genomics and precision oncology. That work sharpened my instinct for translating dense science into clinically actionable insight.

Today I serve as Chief of Staff at Unravel Genomics while continuing postdoctoral research at City of Hope. I build agentic AI systems that compress weeks of grant writing, strategic planning, and administrative work into hours, giving lean teams the leverage of a much larger organization.
