I am currently a creative business owner, I’ve had it for 2 years and the past year I’ve gone back to the drawing board to reasses how I want to proceed. I’ve experienced a lot of set backs which takes an emotional toll on me. However these set backs are eye openers to learn from. I think I would really benefit from proper financing and the support of a mentor to help me expand and grow my business into more than just a 1 woman show.

I loved the main value of breaking silos. I also loved the Instagram page and im super curious about the podcast episodes and would love access to those. I don’t know if I would be attending any uae based events as im based in oman. I think what I can add is a very different perspective, I am Omani from the south (Dhofar) a very under represented community and my current work and research has been about breathing like into pre historic / pre Islamic artefacts and sharing stories of my ancestors through my art/jewellery/sculptures etc. also - I see you do trips! Would love to organize a trip to oman during certain seasons like rose harvest season in the mountains. Oman has a lot to offer. This is what I can think of as of right now. I’m open to having a more casual one on one chat with the team about potential offerings

my creative interests right now revolve around story telling through applied arts. In my free time I am a research geek, I love to read, I love to geek out on new obsessions or learn new creative skills (my new mission is learning how to water colour) and when it’s the season, I tend to my garden and spend most of my time outdoors in nature.
