About

I'm a Beirut-based media professional who has spent nearly two decades on the technical and production side of television — starting in broadcast operations at Rotana, moving through live studio direction, and today leading post-production for drama, entertainment and commercial work.

That range is the point: I understand a project from the playout server to the final grade, so I can run a post pipeline that is on time, on budget and technically sound. I'm looking for a challenging role where that experience matters, and I'm happy to travel.
