 Assistant Professor

Profile

Achieving fateful goals which have a positive or negative impact depends on God's reconciliation and then the person's choices.

   My PhD study in the largest university in Europe (Sorbonne University Paris IV) in French language that I had never learned before, as well as an ancient culture and civilization that I did not know much about them before. It was undoubtedly one of the biggest dilemmas and challenges that I faced during my career in this life, as a result of the continuous, hard effort and determination was triumphed in this Challenge.

    Before that stage and its fateful decisions, I went through long experiences in both private and public sectors represented working in several ministries and government sectors, such as the Royal Commission in Jubail Industrial City, the Municipality of Jeddah, the National Guard and the Emirate of Makkah Al-Mukarramah Region, where I held many leadership positions, which had a great impact on the formulation of my personality, administrative and leadership capabilities represented in decision making, prudently and foresight, and the ability to manage meetings and committees.

 A decision which has been taken to change my career to  the academic field as a faculty member at the university in 2007 was to refine these experiences and present them in a distinctive form for future generations in order to achieve their desired and ambitious goals and to contribute effectively to the development and progress our this country.
