I am a senior lecturer (assistant professor) and Taub Fellow at the Technion Faculty of Computer Science. I completed my PhD at Tel Aviv University, where I was fortunate to be advised by Noga Alon. After that, I was a postdoc at Weizmann Institute (with Moni Naor) and Harvard University (with Madhu Sudan), an instructor in applied mathematics at MIT, and a research fellow at Simons Institute.

Research Interests: Theoretical and algorithmic foundations of big data, focusing on theoretical modeling of modern massive, complex, and challenging computational environments. Some areas of interest: sublinear-time algorithms; human-centered and societal aspects of algorithms; beyond worst case analysis; knowledge representation; and complex networks.

Students: Ofrie Rosenthal (MSc), Sujud Abu-Atta (MSc), Tomer Waizer (MSc).
I am always looking for motivated students interested in algorithmic research "between theory and practice". Feel free to reach out!

Program committees: PODS 2027, AAAI 2026, FOCS 2025, PODS 2025 (Distinguished PODS PC Member), WSDM 2025, ESA 2025, WSDM 2024, IJCAI 2024, ITCS 2022.
