Currently I am an Assistant Professor in the Software Engineering and Network Engineering & Security departments at Jordan University of Science and technology with extensive experience in Software Engineering and information security. My research interests lie primarily in the intersection of software engineering, information security, Cryptography, and human-computer interaction. I am especially interested in finding better ways to design software systems that are safe, secure, and reliable to use. I received my Ph.D. in Engineering from the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee in 2017 and my M.S. in Software Engineering from George Mason University in 2012. I have received my B.S. degree from the Department of Computer Engineering of Jordan University of Science and Technology in Jan 2007.
