My career in the screen industry started when I was accepted onto the ScreenSkills First Break Programme where I got to shadow three departments; AD's, location and the production team on Netflix' Black Doves. Off the back of this I worked for a day on Channel 4's Comedy Blaps as a runner.
More recently I am coming off working as a researcher at 72 Films on 'Diana: One Day in Paris'.
I also have a background as a journalist writing for leading publications such as Rolling Stone MENA, Vogue Arabia, GQ ME, Esquire ME, COMPLEX MENA and The New Arab. I have written a wide range of subjects from music, film, sports, art, politics etc.

And spoken to other well respected sports journalists for a piece such as Leyla Hamed, Omarr Belhaj and Maher Mezahi.
