About
I'm currently a 2nd year PhD student at Wayne State University, where I'm majoring in Industrial Engineering and minoring in Computer Science. I've got a GPA of 4 till now, and published in well known journals like Expert Systems With Application and International Journal of Electrical Power & Energy Systems. Every year, since I was born, I tried to catch knowledge in different areas, so as to be a multi skill person. This has strengthened my skill set as both an exceptional public speaker, in that I have the ability to read people and speak to a diverse group of individuals, and it has allowed me to be resilient, open-minded, and adaptable in every walk of life. That's why I won the outstanding teaching assistant award at the Wayne State college of engineering the first semester that I attended as a PhD student. Also, I got the full sponsorship for my tuition and stipend for good academic standing. My first preference is to work as a faculty at a prestigious university. However, I believe that every job has a transferable skill that is valuable to both personal lives and professional lives, and I am open to any professional experience that will make me stronger and more skilled, both as a candidate for future dealings with the professional world and as an individual.
