I am a PhD candidate for Computer Science in the Viterbi School of Engineering at the University of Southern California (USC). I work with Sven Koenig on various subfields of Artificial Intelligence (AI) such as Heuristic Search, Multi-Agent Path Finding, Planning and Scheduling and Constraint Reasoning.
I received my MSc in Computer Science from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. My Master's thesis, The Easy-Factors Heuristic, is in the field of Automated Planning and was done under the supervision of Jeffrey Rosenschein. I received my BSc in computer engineering, with a focus on intelligent systems and computer hardware, from the Hebrew University as well.
Before joining USC, I was head Teaching Assistant of Introduction to AI at the Hebrew University, and lecturer of AI, From Hardware to Software and Signals & Systems courses at the Jerusalem College of Engineering. Before my academic campaign, I was a hardware engineer at Intel Development Center, Jerusalem. I also served in the Israeli Air Force when I was younger.
Fight On!

Artificial Intelligence Projects
During the academic years of 2009/2010, 2010/2011 and 2011/2012 I was the head T.A of introduction to AI course at the Hebrew University. During those years I guided over 80 final projects. You can find an in-depth report about most of them here (feel free to contact me if you have any questions or would like to aquire the source code).
