Career highlights
An Arts graduate and a Dubai kid, I’ve worked in advertising, social media, and public relations over the last five years, and I’ve finally found my niche in public relations. Azizi Developments, Wasl Properties, Samsung, Huawei Mobile Services, Arabian Automobiles, and Al Ghandi Auto are just a few of the companies I’ve worked with.
Guiding principles
In this industry, I feel like every day is a school day. As PR professionals, we are exposed to a plethora of information on a daily basis, and the most important factor in succeeding in this industry is to remain humble, embrace chaos, and continue learning and growing one day at a time.
Side hustle
Part of an amateur football club, but I hope to start my own Athlete Representation Agency, with my passion for football and other sports playing a key role.
