What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry-level chemistry role where I can apply analytical methods and QC/QA documentation practices in real pharmaceutical, cosmetics, or industrial environments.

I’m a BSc Chemistry candidate at The American University in Cairo, currently preparing for a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry with a minor in Economics.

In summer 2025, I interned at MEVAC, where I learned pharmaceutical operations and laboratory practices, attending lectures on QC, QA, GMP, and SOPs.

I’ve also seen how chemistry shows up on the production floor through a L’Oréal factory industrial site visit, observing quality control laboratories and large-scale cosmetic manufacturing, and through a Total Energies internship performing distillation and GC analysis against product specifications.

Alongside my industry exposure, I’ve built documentation and compliance habits through work-study roles at AUC and participated in campus and community initiatives like ACT and Youth Love Egypt.
