Service Activity

As a Lecturer and Examination Coordinator, I have been actively involved in academic planning, ensuring that course modules and lectures effectively convey foundational and advanced concepts in Interior Design. In my capacity as a Thesis Supervisor, I mentor final-year students through all phases of their research projects providing critical guidance, constructive feedback, and encouraging innovative and independent thinking. My role contributes to maintaining academic excellence and nurturing a studio culture that fosters creativity, research orientation, and professional growth.


Brief Statement of Research Interest

As an Interior designer and Educationist, My research explores architectural fluidity and parametric design through the lens of Zaha Hadid’s innovative design philosophy. I am particularly interested in how fluid forms and digital design processes challenge conventional spatial boundaries and create dynamic, experiential environments. Drawing from Hadid's pioneering use of parametric tools and her emphasis on continuous, organic geometries, my work investigates the intersection of aesthetics, technology, and spatial perception in contemporary architecture and interior design. This research also informs my academic practice, encouraging students to engage with computational tools and conceptual frameworks that redefine form-making in the 21st century.
