Biography

Starting a career as a development sector professional back in 2008 after completing Masters in Social Sciences, I remained working in different national and international organizations (NGOs) and consultancy firms till 2015. I continued fulfilling my desires for learning along with professional life and completed M.Phil Gender Studies in 2015 and joined academia in 2016 as Research Associate at Lahore Leads University. My interests in research motivated me pursuing for PhD in Gender Studies (2016-24) along with teaching and publications. So, since 2017 I am teaching undergraduate level courses and have published multiple research articles. As teacher I believe satisfying all the queries of my students is the indicator of my professional achievement.
