What I'm looking for

I am seeking teaching or research roles where I can apply my climate-security research, develop curricula, and contribute to inclusive program design and policy-focused projects.

I am a political science researcher and educator with an MPhil focused on climate change, floods and water scarcity as non-traditional threats to Pakistan's security. I have taught at Lahore College for Women and Lahore Grammar School, supported program work with Community World Service Asia, and produced research and writing on geopolitics and governance.

My strengths include applied research, curriculum development, conference participation, and clear written communication. I combine academic rigor (3.78 CGPA in MPhil) with practical program experience in equality, inclusion and participation, and I aim to translate research into policy-relevant teaching and program work.
