I am a mid-management level within the government, and currently a postdoctoral fellow too. Interacting outside my main discipline will help unlock my creativity level through interdisciplinary thinking and collaborations.

I am very interested to join for three reasons. First, it is a huge opportunity to foster my creativity as a future thinker, through interacting with likeminded individuals. Second, to expand my network beyond the crime and cognitive science disciplines—such inter-disciplinary network would definitely expand my horizon in combining science, creativity and business. Third, the events are FUN -:) I can add to the community in several respects. First, I am an advocate of using science to ‘create’ new knowledge about the world—I can potentially showcase this synergy during my chats with community members. Second, apart from the UAE, I have lived in three countries around the world (Australia, UK and USA), thus enabling me to better share and understand other cultures. Third, I will leverage my cross-disciplinary network for the benefit of the club’s community. Looking forward to join this vibrant and likeminded community.

I spend my free time in learning French language and culture. Love cross-cultural learning, and linking that with ‘science.’ I am an outdoor person too, and love mountain skiing when I travel.
