Biography

I joined Georgetown University Qatar as a Teaching & Learning Assistant in 2020. In this role, I collaborate with faculty to enhance teaching methods, integrate student well-being into academics, and design engaging learning experiences, including the Engelhard Program and the Ecological Belonging Fellowship.

Before this, I completed my Master’s in International Affairs at the University of Waterloo and worked on various initiatives focused on faculty support in EdTech and Teaching & Learning. I believe that teachers and professors are not just educators but mentors who have the opportunity to leave a lasting mark. With this in mind, I approach every teaching and learning experience as a chance to impact students’ learning journeys meaningfully.

In my free time, I enjoy creating line art, gaming, going desert camping, and spending quality time with my family and cats.
