Building intelligent systems that solve real-world problems across agriculture, cities, education, and governance using AI, IoT, and data.
Bridging AI Innovation
with Real-World Impact
I am a computer engineering graduate with a deep focus on Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and sustainable technology.
I design intelligent systems for real social impact — especially in agriculture, smart cities, education, and governance. My work combines technical depth with strategic thinking, targeting solutions that are scalable and sustainable.
From leading NASA Space Apps Challenge in Casablanca to organizing GDG Marrakech events, I bridge the gap between innovation ecosystems and real communities.
