I am a postdoc in the Department of Mathematics of the University of Haifa. Previously, I was an Australian Research Council postdoctoral fellow at Macquarie University, Australia,  and a Visiting Assistant Professor at SUNY at Buffalo , USA. I obtained my PhD in Mathematics at the University of Warwick UK.
