ABOUT me

Before embarking on my consultancy journey, I spent over ten years navigating the intricate world of the non-profit sector and government institutions. My roles were diverse and impactful. I served as a social worker, delving into the lives of those in need, a researcher uncovering vital data to drive change, and a project director steering initiatives towards success. Recently, my path led me to the prestigious International Migration Institute at Lebanese American University, where I joined as a visiting fellow. This new chapter saw me diving deeper into academic realms, producing publications, and actively engaging in critical discussions about migration. Since 2015, my professional and research horizons expanded even further. I ventured into areas like child protection, gender-based violence, and the complexities surrounding migration with multiple vulnerabilities. My expertise grew to encompass pressing issues such as child labor and labor rights. Drawing from my rich background as a social worker, I aimed to refine my qualitative research skills, tailoring them to meet the unique needs of international development and local organizations. My journey is one of growth, learning, and unwavering commitment to making a difference in the world.
