My primary research focuses on using bivalves as bio-indicators to study micro and nano plastic contamination. I am also dedicated to exploring genetic and physiological methods that align with and contribute to the objectives of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030. My research interests include generally studying the enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant defense system of the land snail Eobania vermiculata as biomarkers of terrestrial heavy metal pollution and   histopathological changes of the digestive gland.

Before pursuing my doctoral studies, I served as a Lecturer in Animal Physiology at Umm Al-Qura University, where I also held leadership roles, including Vice Dean of the college and membership on the university council. I hold a Master's degree in Animal Physiology-Zoology with first honors and a Bachelor's degree in Biology with second honors from Taif University. In 2013, my research was recognized by Elsevier as the best among 20 international research projects.
