Available to hire
With over 17 years of immersive narrative filmmaking across fiction, documentary, television, commercials, and branded content, I’ve acquired a wealth of expertise in visual storytelling. My journey has been marked by significant milestones, from showcasing my work at prestigious film festivals both nationally and internationally to collaborating with renowned clients such as Tashkeel, Ministry of Education, Ma’an, Macro Museum, MBC, National Geographic Abu Dhabi, Vice Arabia, Boomtown, and ADNOC.
Notably, at the age of 20, I achieved the distinction of becoming the youngest editor in MBC history. These experiences have honed my skills in crafting compelling narratives that resonate with diverse audiences while meeting strategic objectives. Now, I am excited to leverage my extensive background in visual storytelling as well as eager to bring a fresh perspective and collaborate within a team towards a common vision.
