I’m a Lebanese filmmaker and director, born in 1992. I studied Business Administration in Beirut and earned a degree in Film and Television Directing in Malaysia, later building a career directing mini-series for international platforms and creating heart-touching content that blends imagination with reality. I’ve worked across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon and Syria, bringing creative ideas to life and shaping projects that resonate with audiences and future generations. In TV and music fields, I’ve directed many ads and documentaries aired on Lebanese channels like MTV and Al Jadeed, and I’ve edited and color graded many of my own works. I have also served as an assistant director on various projects and worked as a freelance director at Twofour54 in the UAE, producing content across multiple sectors. I’m passionate about turning ideas into art that can educate, inspire and entertain.
