-I co-direct the [SANAD lab](https://sanadlab.org) lab where we design tools and techniques that can help software developers perform their tasks more efficiently and effectively. My research heavily relies on the idea of mining software repositories, where I extract and analyze data from existing software repositories (e.g., version control systems, issue tracking systems, crowd-sourced question/answer websites) to infer insights that can help developers perform their tasks. For more info on my research, please check my [research projects](/projects/) and [publications](/publications).

-Before joining NYUAD in 2024, I was an Associate Professor at the [University of Alberta](https://www.ualberta.ca/en/index.html) in Canada where I held a [Tier II Canada Research Chair in Software reuse](https://www.chairs-chaires.gc.ca/chairholders-titulaires/profile-eng.aspx?profileId=4393). During my almost 8 years at the UofA, I established and led the Software Maintenance and Reuse (SMR) lab. I obtained my Master's (2010) and PhD (2014) degrees from the [The University of Waterloo](https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/) under the supervision of [Ric Holt](https://plg.uwaterloo.ca/~holt/) and spent approximately two years as a post-doctoral researcher at [TU Darmstadt](https://www.tu-darmstadt.de/) in Germany working with [Mira Mezini]("https://www.stg.tu-darmstadt.de/staff/mira_mezini/). I also spent part of my sabbatical in 2022/2023 with the [GitHub Next](https://githubnext.com) team working with [Max Schaefer](https://github.com/max-schaefer)
