Nuha was born in Palestine and received her BSc in Computer Science from An-Najah National University in Nablus, Palestine with high distinction.

She pursued her graduate studies in Computer Engineering – Data Mining at Erciyes University in Turkey. During her post graduate studies, Nuha worked as a scientific researcher at the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TÜBİTAK). Her major responsibilities were developing clustering and anomaly detection techniques for analysing diabetes mellitus data. Nuha was selected as an Exchange student on the Erasmus mundus and she pursed her studies at AGH university in Poland.

Nuha is a TechWomen fellow. During the TechWomen program Nuha did her internship at LinkedIn, Silicon Valley where she worked closely with highly qualified data engineering teams and data analytics. After she returned to Palestine, Nuha participated in organising the First Palestinian TechWomen conference.

Nuha is affiliated with The Palestinian Quebec Science Bridge (PQSB). She is a research associate at the Data-Driven Analysis of software lab (DAS) - Concordia University, where she is working on mining software repositories to  predict security vulnerabilities in source code at an early stage of software development life cycle using machine learning algorithms.

Nuha is studying MSc Cyber Security Engineering at The University of Warwick. She aims to combine her knowledge in data mining with knowledge in cybersecurity to build learning models to predict potential malware evasion techniques.
