Completed PhD in Chemistry in 2016 on fully funded scholarship awarded from University of Auckland, New Zealand. The work focussed on development of bio-inspired dry adhesives. Since July 2017, I am working as Assistant Professor at Department of Chemistry, GC Women University Sialkot. Since my joining I have been actively involved in teaching, research and various administrative tasks. I started focussing on the subject related problems faced by local industry and introduced a course at MS level.
