Academic Journey
My academic journey began with a Bachelor of Computer Science from Mutah University, Jordan (2010), followed by a Master of Science in Computer Science with a focus on Software Engineering from the University of Putra Malaysia (UPM) in 2013. I then earned my Ph.D in Software Engineering from the University of Malaysia Pahang (UMP) in 2017, specializing in software testing optimization through artificial intelligence techniques.
Throughout this journey, I've had the opportunity to collaborate with talented researchers, publish in prestigious journals, and contribute to the advancement of knowledge in my field. Each step has enriched my understanding and allowed me to grow both as an academic and as a professional software engineer.
Video & Creative Work
Creative Design & Technical Skills
Beyond academic research and teaching, I'm passionate about creative design and multimedia production. The video above was created as a promotional piece for Jordan during the international open day held at UMP in 2017. It showcases my skills in motion graphics, video editing, and visual storytelling.
My technical expertise extends beyond traditional software engineering into areas of graphic design, UI/UX development, and multimedia production. These creative skills complement my analytical abilities, allowing me to bring a unique perspective to both academic and technical projects. I believe that the intersection of technical expertise and creative thinking is where true innovation happens.
I regularly apply these skills in my teaching, creating engaging educational content that helps students better understand complex technical concepts. I'm also available for consulting on projects that require both technical depth and creative vision.
