      Freelance Illustrator

      I am a passionate and professional illustrator who started drawing at a young age. In 2016, I've started my own business (My fingers) to sell my artwork on different social media platforms. I sold hundreds of drawing, artwork, calligraphy pieces and Arabic oriental patterns locally and internationally. Throughout my experience, I learned how to develop a business model while managing my time efficiently to study, work and practice my hobby. I also participated in art galleries and houses decoration in Latakia. Show less

      Global Humanitarian Advocacy Advisor

      As a humanitarian advocacy advisor, part of my job is to tailor our advocacy messages according to the needs of local communities and integrate them with IRW operations. You can find some articles I wrote to simplify our advocacy calls in the link below. Additionally, I develop concise policies around key thematic areas in the humanitarian space, such as forced displacements, refugees, food insecurity, and climate change. I then endeavour to use these policies during high-level meetings in Geneva with institutions and donors. Show less
