What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to apply my nutrition knowledge while contributing to community health initiatives and educational programs.

I am a recent graduate from An-Najah National University, holding a Bachelor’s degree in Nutrition and Food Processing. My academic journey has been enriched by active participation in various student activities and projects with NGOs, where I developed a strong foundation in nutrition and community engagement. I have a keen interest in applying my knowledge to improve health outcomes, particularly for vulnerable populations.

Throughout my training as a Nutritionist at Ibn Sina Hospital and Nutrihealth Center, I gained hands-on experience in addressing diverse medical cases, including providing nutritional support for diabetic children and patients with polycystic ovary syndrome. I am dedicated to promoting health education and have conducted numerous workshops and lectures on nutrition, focusing on its importance in different life stages.

My commitment to learning and community service drives my ambition to work as a nutritionist in the medical field. I am eager to contribute to initiatives that provide medical and educational services, ensuring that everyone has access to the nutritional guidance they need for a healthier life.
