It is the passion for education and architecture that acts as a catalyst for inspiration and help to improve people’s everyday life through academic excellence. Going through various research journey, I would love to be involved mainly on conservation of historical and heritage, vernacular buildings as well as sustainable building designs as to give awareness on individuals to create an atmosphere that compliments the past-present-future environments, as well as the appreciation of past history which act as a lesson to be gained through experiences. The teaching and learning session in higher institutions will not be based on theoretical understanding only, but to be applied on real situations in the future that will enhance the lives of our upcoming generations.
