About Me

I am a 24-year-old from Midelt, a small town nestled between the Middle and High Atlas mountains in Morocco. Being raised by parents with a scientific background, I was introduced early on to the world of mathematics, logic, and problem-solving. This foundation significantly influenced my academic and professional choices, leading me naturally to pursue computer science, with a particular passion for machine learning. Outside of my academic pursuits, I am passionate about football, both as a fan and as a player for FC Maroc München.
