Hello! I’m Z
I am a LEED AP ND–certified urban designer with professional experience spanning urban design and landscape architecture. I hold a Master of Urban Planning from the American University of Sharjah, a nationally accredited program, with credentials evaluated by World Education Services (WES).
With an academic background in Architectural Engineering, my work bridges design theory, technical thinking, and spatial storytelling. My experience includes small to medium-scale residential landscapes, podium-level designs, large-scale urban frameworks, transit-oriented development (TOD), public realm strategies, and feasibility and capacity studies.
My core interests lie in placemaking, landscape urbanism, environmental sustainability, and people-centered design. I am particularly drawn to work that combines research, visual communication, and design to create intuitive and resilient urban environments.
On this website, I share content focused primarily on urban and landscape topics, with select explorations in architecture.
Beyond professional practice, I enjoy travel, sketching, and urban visual exploration, which I share through this platform.
