Faryab University, Faryab, Afghanistan, Lecturer
I served as a dedicated Lecturer at Faryab University from August 2020 to September 2022.

My responsibilities encompassed not only the delivery of architecture courses but also the strategic leadership necessary to initiate and oversee the department's activities. This role was particularly significant as it coincided with a challenging period marked by the Taliban's decision to disallow girls from pursuing education, leading to my eventual exit from the university.

I take pride in being the first Architecture Lecturer to establish and lead the department, contributing to the academic landscape of Faryab University and leaving a lasting impact on the educational legacy of the institution.
