I led significant projects such as master planning for Jubail Industrial City (JIC) and Ras Al Khair Industrial City (RIC) developments. The flagship project over 2025 is the new strategic master for RIC that is aspired to bring about an additional 230-plus square kilometer industrial development zone and 100-plus square kilometer residential expansion adjacent JIC. • Previous Roles: 2022-to-2025: Manager of Engineering (MoE) Department (RIC) - tasked with creating a stand-alone engineering department independent of Jubail Industrial City.
