The Professional Me
I'm a freelance journalist in the Middle East, currently based in Beirut, Lebanon. For five years I lived in Cairo as a journalist and professor, writing about economics, archaeology, technology, business, politics and social affairs. My work has appeared in National Geographic News, Reuters, the Economist Intelligence Unit, Al Masry Al Youm and AOLNews.
I work as the Lebanon reporter for Nile International, the English news program on Egyptian state television with videos available here. My articles regularly appear in National Geographic News, the NatGeo website. I conducted research about infrastructure in five cities in North Africa for the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), where I was the Egypt notesender for three years. Fodor's Travel Guide to Egypt also features my work.
Before moving to Beirut I was a news producer for Reuters-VCSS making video packages about world events. I was a reporter for Al-Masry Al-Youm English Edition and founded ICT Business magazine, where I was the Editor-in-Chief for two years. I have been regularly featured in the Global Village Voices segment on Al Jazeera English's Listening Post program and contribute as a Middle East expert for the South African news program on talk radio in Cape Town, Midday Report.
I taught journalism and media ethics at the American University in Cairo for two years. My academic work has been published in two scholarly conferences, AUSACE and ATCOSS. I currently study at the Center for Arab and Middle Eastern Studies (CAMES) at the American University in Beirut. I received an MS in journalism from the Medill School of Journalism and a BA in communications from Temple University. I am a member of Temple's School of Communications and Theater list of notable alumni.
