Welcome to my website! I am an Assistant Professor and the director of Mobile Systems, Intelligent Networks, and Data Science (MINDS) Lab at the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs (UCCS). I received my BS and MS degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Tehran, in 2010 and 2012, respectively, and the PhD degree from Virginia Tech, in 2017. I had previously held industry positions as a research intern at Qualcomm and Nokia Bell Labs. My research interests include wireless communications (6G and beyond), machine learning, cross-layer network optimization, and context-aware networks with an emphasis on new technologies such as connected and autonomous vehicles, wireless extended reality, and industrial IoT. See my Google Scholar Profile for the list of publications. To learn more about our research, please visit MINDS lab.
