What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that challenge my creativity and allow for growth in a collaborative environment.

As a Creative Partner at From6 Communications since March 2019, I have had the privilege of collaborating with esteemed clients such as the National Bank of Bahrain and the American University of Bahrain. My journey in the creative industry began after graduating with a BA in Graphic Design from ASU in 2003, and I have since built a successful career driven by my passion for design.

Prior to my current role, I served as a Creative Director at Arion Media, where I led projects for notable brands like Ritz Carlton and the National Oil & Gas Authority. My experience spans over a decade, during which I have developed and executed memorable advertising campaigns across the MENA region, including key accounts in Kuwait and Oman. I am proud to have been recognized with multiple short-listings for the CommsMEA Awards for Marketing Campaign of the Year.

Throughout my career, I have built and maintained strong partnerships with clients, ensuring that our campaigns not only resonate creatively but also deliver measurable ROI. My portfolio showcases a diverse range of local and international brands, reflecting my commitment to excellence in every project I undertake.
