• Completed the Effective Science Management certification (ProMi). • Co-authored two peer-reviewed publications on (i) the relationship between MWI water strategy and research demand and (ii) improving groundwater data management. • Developing and maintaining relationships with key internal and external stakeholders. • Project coordination, data collection, and content writing (e.g., newsletter and reports). • Organizing, facilitating, and/or delivering training and presentations for project stakeholders.

Worked on the "Sustainable Reconstruction & Urban Regeneration guidelines" project. Main achievements included: • Supporting the drafting of the sustainable reconstruction guidelines for the MENA region. • Reviewing various chapters related to the energy transition, climate change adaptation and mitigation, and providing comments on completeness, accuracy, and recommended actions. • Drafting and updating the "recommended tools" checklist at the end of each chapter.

Conducted independent Sustainability and Environmental Research during master's studies on urban water infrastructure resilience by mapping the Ecosystem Services (ES) generated from Glasgow's Smart Canal project. Main achievements: • Analyzed and evaluated spatial and temporal data and information (e.g., Land use/land cover data, DEM, Copernicus land monitoring data). • Developed sustainable infrastructure management recommendations (e.g., Canal Oriented Design).

• Designing infrastructure systems and planning for site grading, earthworks, road networks, and stormwater drainage networks. • Quality checking by ensuring blueprints comply with QA/QC standards and company procedures. • Collaborating with other engineers to provide technical consultations for interdisciplinary analytical studies and analyses. • Preparing engineering computations, material quantity takeoffs, estimates, surveys, and designs.

• Successfully completed internal auditor training in ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management Systems. • Effectively led the development and implementation of a new QA/QC system as an internal auditor. • Designing infrastructure networks, including roads and drainage projects. • Supporting the preparation of Environmental Impact Assessment studies (EIAs). • Liaising with other departments t to deliver the project scope. • Preparing engineering computations and Bill of Quantities (BOQs).
