What I'm looking for

I seek senior creative leadership roles where I can lead cross-functional teams, craft high-impact TV and digital content, and drive brand growth through innovative storytelling.

I am a passionate and visionary creative director, producer, and senior editor with over 20 years of experience creating compelling content for regional and international networks, including MTV, LBC, MBC, Al Jazeera, OSN and others. I specialize in conceptualizing, directing, and producing TV shows, documentaries, promos and social videos, taking projects from idea through post-production using tools like Adobe Premiere, Avid Media Composer and After Effects.

Known for collaborative leadership and managing cross-functional teams, I have produced prime-time programming, high-profile promotional campaigns and digital projects that boost brand growth and audience engagement. My mission is to push creative boundaries, inspire audiences and elevate brands across broadcast and digital platforms.
