About Me

I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Electrical and Computer Engineering at New Mexico State University with 8+ years of industry experience in hardware design, embedded systems, and power electronics. My expertise spans the complete product development lifecycle—from concept and schematic capture through multi-layer PCB layout, fabrication, bring-up, and validation.

Research & Expertise

My research focuses on SoC power and thermal modeling, power management, and hardware performance optimization. I have extensive hands-on experience delivering production-ready PCB designs for:

Industrial Control Systems
IoT and Smart Devices
Automotive Telematics
Medical Electronics

Technical Proficiency

I specialize in:

Multi-layer PCB Design (up to 8 layers) using Altium Designer
High-Speed Digital Design with power integrity and EMI-aware layout
Embedded Systems Development on AVR, PIC, ESP32, and Nvidia Jetson platforms
Power Electronics including PMIC, BMS, and motor control systems
Communication Protocols: UART, I2C, SPI, CAN, USB, Ethernet, GSM/GPRS, GPS

Professional Background

Previously, I served as Senior Hardware Design Engineer at Tatweer Middle East & Africa (UAE), where I designed automotive-grade telematics devices and solar MPPT controllers. Earlier, I managed the Multi-Layer PCB Laboratory at the Egyptian Armed Forces Research Center, overseeing fabrication and quality assurance for complex defense electronics projects.

I hold a Master’s degree in Power Electronics and Control Engineering from Menoufia University (Egypt) and am currently pursuing dual graduate degrees (Ph.D. and M.Sc.) at NMSU with a perfect 4.0 GPA.

In a complete theory there is an element corresponding to each element of reality. A sufficient condition for the reality of a physical quantity is the possibility of predicting it with certainty, without disturbing the system. In quantum mechanics in the case of two physical quantities described by non-commuting operators, the knowledge of one precludes the knowledge of the other. Then either (1) the description of reality given by the wave function in quantum mechanics is not complete or (2) these two quantities cannot have simultaneous reality. Consideration of the problem of making predictions concerning a system on the basis of measurements made on another system that had previously interacted with it leads to the result that if (1) is false then (2) is also false. One is thus led to conclude that the description of reality as given by a wave function is not complete.
