I got my Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering with a major in electronics and embedded systems while securing the second‑highest GPA in the

class. My final year project was the implementation of the Kalman‑filter on FPGA to analyze the fNIRS signal for real‑time detection of brain activity. I

was awarded scholarships and awards based on academic excellence.
