Revolutionizing the future of sustainability, high-tech transport, and space policy with strategic engagement expertise.

I am a dynamic professional and sustainability advocate currently pursuing a Master's of Science degree at Georgetown University, focusing on energy, sustainability, and space policy.

I have a proven track record in the transportation technology industry, having served as a Strategic Engagement Manager at Virgin Hyperloop, where I led the company's engagement with governments, partners, and investors across the Arabian Gulf, India, and Southeast Asia for over five years.

I am committed to continuing my work at the intersection of energy, sustainability, and space policy to create innovative solutions that will shape the future of sustainable mobility.
