Research Assistant at Concordia University
"I truly love all the aspects of doing research: The time you spend to come up with interesting problems, the paths you explore to solve your problems, the conferences you attend, the bright people you have the chance to meet, the stage of waking up in the middle of night with an idea and sharing it with your colleagues the next day, are all just a few examples. The only thing that I hate about it is the times your papers get rejected!"
