As an Assistant Professor at the American University in Cairo, I teach advanced architectural courses with a strong emphasis on tectonic principles. My main courses, ARCH 4562 Vertical B Design Studio and GP 1 Thesis Part One, focus on exploring the relationship between materiality, structure, and form. Through a project-based approach, I guide students in developing innovative and contextually relevant architectural solutions, preparing them for the complexities of professional practice.

Leading Noon Studio (ن) as a platform for experimental design, innovation, and technology-driven solutions rooted in cultural identity and collective growth. I oversee a diverse range of projects spanning architecture, computational design, AI applications, and sustainable fabrication. Noon empowers students and young creatives to collaborate, explore, and co-create through real-world competitions, workshops, and research-based experimentation. Our mission is to rethink the future by merging science, history, and digital design into bold, purposeful outcomes.

I engage in delivering lectures, and guiding students through their design projects, focusing on fostering innovation and critical thinking. My work here not only contributes to the academic growth of students but also keeps me at the forefront of architectural education and practice.

I oversee and lead architectural projects from conception through completion. I am responsible for the coordination of all project efforts, both administrative and technical, to ensure the most efficient and cost-effective execution. I work closely with clients to capture their visions and ensure that their objectives are met with innovative and sustainable architectural solutions. My leadership extends to managing a team of talented architects and designers, directing project narratives, and maintaining rigorous attention to detail throughout the project lifecycle.

Assist the design team by visualizing and designing 3ds models.

My PhD research focused on exploring urban dispersion as a passive thermal comfort method in New Cairo, Egypt. I investigated the role of shrub dispersion patterns in optimizing urban settlements for hot climates. By analyzing the self-organized patterns of shrubs, I translated these into mathematical equations to develop an algorithm that guides the redistribution of existing buildings. This study proposed four urban layouts which were assessed using the Universal Thermal Comfort Index, comparing them against existing urban patterns. The results demonstrated that the proposed dispersion patterns could create a significantly more comfortable urban microclimate than current conditions.
