A dedicated and accomplished Oceanographer with over a decade of experience in marine research, environmental sustainability, and coastal zone management. Specializing in the unique ecological challenges of the Arabian Gulf and the broader Middle East region, I have contributed to innovative projects that address climate change impacts on marine ecosystems. My work in Qatar Doha has focused on integrating advanced technologies such as remote sensing and GIS with traditional oceanographic methods to monitor biodiversity, manage marine resources, and support policy development for sustainable coastal communities. As an Oceanographer based in Qatar Doha, I aim to bridge scientific research with actionable strategies that benefit both the environment and local stakeholders.
