I’m at a stage where I’ve built a solid foundation through my work in design, craftsmanship, and cultural projects, but I feel there’s still a lot I want to explore and learn, especially in the Middle East. I’m particularly interested in expanding my perspective across other parts of the Arab world — connecting with different but similar creative communities. I’m looking for spaces that open up new conversations and help me grow through genuine exchanges and experiences.

I’d love to join 1833 because it feels like a place where real conversations and connections happen. I’m always looking to meet people who are passionate about what they do, and to explore new ideas, especially across different parts of the Middle East. I’d use the membership to stay curious, share experiences, and hopefully find ways to collaborate naturally. With my background in design and crafts, I’d like to bring a perspective that’s rooted in culture and creativity, but more than anything, I’m excited to just be part of a community that feels alive and inspiring.

I’ve always been drawn to anything that allows for storytelling and craftsmanship. My creative interests revolve around design, art, and culture — whether it's curating objects, working with artisans, or exploring how tradition can be reinterpreted in a contemporary way. I love visiting exhibitions, discovering new design studios, traveling (especially somewhere with a rich craft scene). I also enjoy reading about history and craftsmanship, and whenever I can, I love connecting with people who are passionate about what they create — whether that's through art, food, or design
