I explore theoretical computer science, AI architectures, and the mathematics of computation.
Computer Science Freshman @ University of Bahrain. I work across algorithmic design, applied machine learning, and systems architecture — with a rigorous focus on the theoretical foundations of computation.

A mix of academic research and independent projects across applied AI, machine learning pipelines, and computational problem solving. Each one taught me something about rigorous systems design.

I'm Yaseen, a Computer Scientist from Bahrain fascinated by the theoretical foundations of artificial intelligence and algorithmic design. I'm currently a Freshman at the University of Bahrain on a full Ministry of Education scholarship. Before this, I graduated from the Nasser Centre for Science and Technology with a 96.84% GPA, passing comprehensive finals covering an entire senior AI curriculum through rigorous self-study, while simultaneously graduating from River High School in Ohio with a 4.00 GPA during the Kennedy-Lugar YES exchange program.
I learned to think like a computer scientist by deconstructing systems to understand their underlying logic. Mathematics and computation became my tools to model the world. This analytical instinct carried me through three highly distinct academic systems: Arabic-medium government schools, NCST's digital-first applied curriculum, and a rural American high school. Each environment forced me to adapt my reasoning and problem-solving methodologies from the ground up.
My technical focus lies at the intersection of theory and application: studying deep learning architectures, building retrieval-augmented systems, and engineering reliable MLOps pipelines. Long-term, I want to advance Arabic NLP research — closing the gap in AI performance not just through data aggregation, but by developing architectures that natively understand the morphological complexity of the Arabic language.
I hold an AWS Certification in AI, a CMI Level 3 in Management, and am fluent in both Arabic and English. I am actively continuing my exploration into the mathematics of computation, and am always open to research roles, academic collaborations, and challenging internship opportunities.
The formal record — schools, certifications, test scores, and the tools I work with.
