All of the work you see on my portfolio has been designed, coded/developed by my team and I.
I’m a technology solutions specialist working more and more around business design and strategy. I have been working for 12 years in media-tech, web, mobile and software. This work has exposed me to several industries – Finance, Oil and Gas, Higher Education and Media & Advertising.
I love building and working with tech development/ design teams. Matching complex problems with intelligent solutions.

We are changing the way the world uses degrees, transcripts and other such documents.

I 2014 I helped to setup and manage a startup accelerator fund in Lebanon ‘Speed Lebanon‘ in 2014 to invest in middle eastern technology startup companies. To date they have invested in 20 companies.
