Background

I am a PhD Candidate at Flinders University, working in the field of sustainable construction. My work focuses on identifying and evaluating alternative building materials with reduced environmental impact, with the aim of offering the construction industry practical, greener substitutes for conventional materials.

Before joining Flinders University, I completed my Master of Science in Structural Engineering at the University of Mazandaran, Iran. My research has been published in several peer-reviewed international journals, and I have collaborated with researchers across Australian and international institutions.

Beyond research, I am passionate about mentoring, teaching, and continuously learning new skills. Outside of academia, I have a passion for running and music. I am currently open to collaboration in the field of sustainable construction.
