Stanford, California
Born and raised in France from an Iranian family, I immigrated to the Silicon Valley to follow my passion. I want to help people achieve their fullest potential and accelerate progress through technology.
My work spans artificial intelligence, learning technologies, and psychometrics. I spend most of my time at Workera – the Skills Intelligence Platform, where my team helps enterprises and individuals understand, develop, and mobilize their talent through AI-powered assessments and personalized learning paths that close skills gaps and future-proof organizations.
Outside of Workera, I am a Lecturer of Computer Science at Stanford where I teach the popular Deep Learning class (CS230) and I'm the co-creator of the Deep Learning Specialization on Coursera completed by over a million learners.
