In 2016 she was appointed Secretary General of Alwaleed Philanthropies.[4][5] She had previously held the role of Executive Manager of Media & Communications there.[6] Under her leadership the foundation has enabled new opportunities for women in Saudi Arabia, including supporting the training of women ride-share drivers and enabling employment for women law graduates.[7]
