About
My current research interests are:
- Online identity management, namely self-sovereign identities.
- Applied cryptography, namely, proxy re-encryption

I was born in Morocco, and grew up in different cities across both its Atlantic ocean and Atlas Mountains: Larache, Tangier, and Ifrane. I've also often went back to Ouezzane where my extended family and grand-parents lived. I currently live in Oslo, Norway, to which I moved in 2014 to pursue my PhD studies. In my spare time, I enjoy walking outdoors. I equally enjoy staying indoors to refine cooking old recipes and try new ones. I'll probably update this page with some more relevant content as I become more comfortable with the idea of online social sharing, which I have intentionally avoided taking part it so far.
