My academic journey has been shaped by an enduring commitment to understanding complex social dynamics, particularly in the domains of Gender and Health and Social Psychology. Throughout my career, I have actively engaged in research, contributing to both national and international academic discourse. I have had the opportunity to work on Higher Education Commission (HEC) and foreign-funded research projects in collaboration with the University of Gujrat, further enriching my expertise in sociological inquiry and empirical analysis. My research interests focus on critical social issues, including gender dynamics, health disparities, and psychosocial well-being, reflecting my broader commitment to interdisciplinary scholarship.

My work aims to bridge the gap between academic knowledge and real-world applications, striving to create an inclusive and research-driven academic environment that contributes meaningfully to both scholarship and social change.

The study explains the intricate relationship between social incivility, techno-stress, and the social media distraction of university students. This study aims to investigate how social incivility is influenced by social media distraction and techno-stress among university students. The research used quantitative analysis and the survey method was used to gather comprehensive information about study variables among university students.

The total sample size of 343 university students that were developed by using the formula of taro Yamani. A structured questionnaire was used as a tool of data collection for the present study.
