Description

I am a filmmaker based between Lyon, France and Gothenburg, Sweden. Produced and directed multiple short documentaries, creative films, and

music videos, most of which were within the fields of cultural integration and social

development, in addition to several other commercial projects.

I lived and worked in Dubai, Istanbul, and Cairo before moving to Sweden in 2015 where I continued working on short docs, social media and online content in addition to working in camera and lighting departments for feature film productions.
