About:

I was born in 1994, grew up in Haifa and graduated high school with extended Physics and Computer Science studies. Served as a software engineer in the IDF and then worked for 2 wonderful years, only to realize my real passion is astrophysics.

During high school and throughout the military service I studied Mathematics courses in the Open University.

Hobbies and activities:

I love hiking and traveling around the world. Huge fan of diving, worked as a Divemaster before my studies. I enjoy any kind of extreme sports – rock climbing, bouldering, surfing, winter sports, completed a skydiving course, and also non-extreme such as football or yoga.

I play the ukulele, guitar, piano, harmonica and like to try any musical instrument I can lay my hands on.

Message to the new generation of students in the program:

Don't be frustrated when you feel completely lost during the semester :) It's ok if you don't understand now. Just don't lose your curiosity!
