I am a second-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Ben-Gurion University, advised by Dr. Omri Azencot. I completed both my B.Sc. (cum laude) and M.Sc. (summa cum laude) in Computer Science at Ben-Gurion University. During my master’s studies, I worked as a Machine Learning Algorithm Engineer at Proteantecs. I also had the opportunity to work at Bosch AI Center in Israel, under the supervision of Dr. Dotan Di Castro. Currently, I am interning as an Applied Researcher at Amazon Prime Video, working under the supervision of Dr. Igor Kviatkovsky, where I focus on developing and integrating multimodal large language models for video-related tasks and long context setups.

My research focuses on generative modeling, disentanglement, and representation learning. I work across multiple modalities—including vision, audio, time series, and text—with the goal of developing general, mathematically grounded methods that are applicable across a wide range of domains through both theoretical insight and empirical analysis.
