Mentorship & Service
Mentoring students, building community, and professional service.
Mentorship
I’ve had the opportunity to work with a variety of talented students: some through the graduate application mentoring I run each cycle, and others through research mentoring at UC Santa Cruz.
I’m always happy to discuss mentoring of any kind, whether that is research, careers, graduate applications, or simply finding your footing on this path. This is open to everyone, and I especially hope to reach students who have had limited access to research mentorship and guidance, as I once did.
Applying this cycle to graduate programs in Computer Science or a related field, and think I might be able to help?

Community Building
egyptians-in-cs.github.io
Community directory of 262 Egyptian computer science researchers across 16 research tracks worldwide. Originally created by Badr AlKhamissi as Egyptians in AI Research, I reached out and we started collaborating, expanding it beyond AI to include all of computer science: security, systems, theory, HCI, and more. The goal is to show students from non-traditional paths that frontier research is possible for them.
