OBJECTIVE

Looking for a bright future in an organization where everyone gets equal

opportunity to implement and prove one’s skills and capabilities.

Satisfy my seniors, myself too, with my work and attitude.

Brief Introduction.

I completed my PhD from Center of Excellence for Advanced Materials Research

(CEAMR) King Abdul Aziz University Jeddah and my Research interests are

Analytical, inorganic & material chemistry, catalysis, nanomaterials and their

analysis and application in organic synthesis, organic transformations,

degradation, sensing and photocatalysis. 5 publications are online from PhD

work with total 17 having 63.4 Impact factor and I have handful practice of

Column chromatography TLC,GC and have understanding in HRTEM.SEM.FT-IR,

GC with photo reactor, UV-Vis., EDS, XRD, XPS, TGA and NMR. Have handful

expertise in Origin-8, Sigmaplot and Chemdraw.Also I have 8 years University,

college and school level teaching and research experience.

Projects Proceeded.

1. KAU Creators (International)(1.Million)
