About Me

Hi there! I’m a Lebanese-American journalist and storyteller drawn to human narratives, diasporic experiences, and forgotten histories. Inspired by my family's survival of the Lebanese Civil War and my New York City upbringing, my writing focuses on culture, identity, and the ordinary ways people carry on through the experience and aftermath of conflict.

I’ve written for Columbia Political Review, News@AUC, and AUCToday, among other outlets, and I share personal reflections on my Substack.

I hold B.A. degrees in Political Science and Middle East Studies from Columbia University and Sciences Po. From 2024-2025, I lived and worked in Egypt as the Presidential Associate at the American University in Cairo. I’m currently based in Amman, Jordan where I write deeply human stories connecting the personal to the political.
