What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to deepen my media expertise and contribute to impactful storytelling.

I am Ahmed Zakaria, a dedicated TV Reporter and Content Creator with a passion for storytelling and media. I graduated from Cairo University in 2021 with a Bachelor's degree in Mass Communication. My journey in media began with training at renowned outlets like Al-Watan newspaper and Life Best magazine, where I honed my skills in news editing and journalism.

Currently, I am a field correspondent for Al-Hayat TV Network, where I cover a variety of events, including political, sports, and social issues. My experience extends to e-commerce content creation, where I developed SEO-optimized content for websites, and social media management, crafting engaging posts that resonate with audiences. I view my diverse experiences as a foundation for my future in media, and I am eager to take on new challenges that will allow me to grow and contribute meaningfully in this field.
