introduction/brief CV
I am a senior Consultant Speech and Language Pathologist and an Assistant Professor in the Department of Rehabilitation Sciences, College of Applied Medical Sciences at King Saud University. My expertise spans speech-language pathology, audiology, and human communication sciences, with a strong foundation in both clinical practice and academic research.
My career began in the private sector as an audiologist before transitioning to academia, where I have been deeply involved in research, teaching, and clinical training. Through advanced studies and international academic experience, I have developed expertise in speech disorders, language development, and evidence-based interventions, contributing to both local and global knowledge in the field.
Beyond academia, I have held leadership and advisory roles, driving initiatives that enhance rehabilitation sciences, professional accreditation, and interdisciplinary research. My work extends to national policy development, professional council leadership, and collaboration with international research networks to advance best practices in speech-language pathology and communication sciences.
