About Me

I am a fourth-year Ph.D. student in the Algorithm and Complexity department at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics, under the supervision of Kurt Mehlhorn. Prior to joining MPI, I earned my B.Sc. in Computer Engineering with a minor in Mathematics from Sharif University of Technology. Following two internships at MPI, I officially joined the institute in 2019 and obtained my M.Sc. in Computer Science.
My research interests lie in theoretical computer science, with a focus on algorithmic game theory (including fair division and mechanism design). I am specifically interested in exploring algorithms that leverage machine learning predictions to enhance their performance.
