Bio
Background
I'm passionate about sound design that brings stories to life. Inspired by the immersive storytelling of Wondery’s podcasts, I craft audio experiences that pull listeners in—blending voice performance, layered soundscapes, and precise audio elements to create emotionally compelling narratives. With over a decade in the industry, I specialize in capturing the essence of any story through sound.
Passion
In 2020, during the pandemic, I co-founded Rising Giants Network with Basel Anabtawi, producing over 50 podcasts that reached more than 20 million listeners. Two of our productions were honored by Apple Podcasts as "Best of the Year." My expertise extends beyond podcasts to radio and TV commercials, where I bring versatility and technical precision to every project.
Education & Expertise
I hold a diploma in Audio Production from SAE Dubai and am currently completing my MA in Professional Practice in Audio Production. This combination of education and hands-on experience across 500+ episodes allows me to deliver high-quality, immersive audio that enhances storytelling and strengthens a brand’s sonic identity.
