About

As a graphic designer, I strongly believe that the innate objects of my craft have instilled in me the virtues of perseverance, ingenuity, and precision to face the challenges in this world.

I became acquainted with social innovation during my bachelors at American University in Dubai (AUD). Since then it has become a part of me. This can be reflected in the projects I have produced at AUD and the road that has led me to adopt Transdisciplinary Design as my specialization now.

My skills as a team player have been put to the test at multiple agencies including Leo Burnett, Insomniac Design, Discovery Creative, and Paris Tokyo Design. In each project, I have sought precision and excellence in addressing a client’s needs from designing websites to posters and other print materials. My ability to multitask was recognized at Paris Tokyo Design where I was given increasing responsibility to the take the lead on projects such as Michelin Tyre and Veolia. Research has been the cornerstone of every project that I am engaged in.

I see myself as a humanitarian with a pen and notebook in hand, ever ready to tackle any issue and bring about positive change.
