Passionate about technological innovation, I am an experienced teacher-researcher in wearable robotics control systems. My career has taken me through academia and industry, with more than 10 years of cumulative experience. Currently, I share my passion for engineering as a lecturer at the Lebanese University and Saint Joseph University in Beirut. My teaching focuses on the areas that fascinate me: control systems and electronic design, real-time systems, robotics. My doctoral research, focused on the control of a lower limb exoskeleton, demonstrates my commitment to improving the quality of life through technology. This experience has allowed me to develop expertise in mechatronic design and testing of assistive devices. Before devoting myself fully to teaching and research, I worked as a design architect and integration engineer in the telecommunications sector, in three different countries. I have successfully completed complex projects and trained many engineers. My ultimate goal is to contribute to the advancement of engineering and medicine through my research and the inspiration I want to instill in my students. I am convinced that the collaboration between these two fields paves the way for major innovations for the future."
