At my best in chaos.

I'm an organized, dedicated professional with a Bachelor's in Mass Communication (Advertising & PR). My experience in account handling, event management and customer service has built strong communication, project management and client relationship skills.

I've been working since I was 15, so I went through everything before I decided where I belong: translating French into Arabic and English, brand managing at a Dubai festival, and leading content strategy for a singer, a festival and brands. I'm at my best on the ground, I always have a plan (the part I love and always deliver on), and I honestly think clearer in the middle of chaos.

Why me

  • Results, not just tasks. Grew @creativeindmena from 45K → 77K followers and drove 10M+ views.
  • I've done the full stack of an account. Client comms, programming, event ops, content, and reporting.
  • Proven under pressure. Won the Cannes Lions RHSA competition against 30 peers, then again vs 5 teams.
  • Multilingual & adaptable. Fluent English & Arabic, French basics, comfortable across MENA & Gulf markets.
