BIO:

As an Iraqi who has been raised in England since infancy, my first language is English, and my second is Arabic. This unique background positions me exceptionally well for opportunities in the UAE, where my mixed culture and bilingual proficiency can offer significant value to any business. Furthermore, I hold a completed law degree from the UK, augmenting my skill set with a strong foundation in legal principles.

Founding and directing a social media agency, FYI, allowed me to spearhead successful campaigns for clients such as Nxdiamusic and others, as well as surround myself with a vast community of influencers. In 2022, I orchestrated the highly successful launch of the year's first influencer event, attracting a diverse roster of attendees, including Unity FM, a Love Island contestant, models, musicians and ZaddyZAIN, a renowned beauty guru. Through meticulous planning and strategic execution, the event provided unparalleled networking opportunities and garnered overwhelming praise from participants, solidifying its status as a pivotal moment within the influencer community.

Additionally, my tenure as a Sales Assistant at a gold business in Manchester provided invaluable experience in developing strong interpersonal skills and product knowledge, as well as training on handling large value goods professionally.
