What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation in heritage conservation, emphasizing teamwork and professional growth.

I am a dedicated heritage conservationist with a postgraduate diploma in Nanotechnology for Restoration and Conservation from Cairo University. My academic journey has been complemented by hands-on experience in various projects focused on preserving cultural heritage. I am passionate about integrating modern technology into conservation practices to enhance the preservation of our historical sites.

Throughout my career, I have contributed to significant projects, including a risk management study at BazarAbbas and architectural documentation for the Egyptian Heritage Rescue Foundation. My role as a teaching assistant at the American University in Cairo has further honed my skills in research and documentation strategies, allowing me to collaborate effectively with faculty and peers to advance cultural heritage studies.
