I write poetry, flash fiction, short stories and sometimes uncategorised prose. In 2015, I launched my picture prompt writing series called Takhayyal, which is Arabic for Imagine.

Over the years, I've worked as a translator, managing editor for a leading news website, a marketing and operations manager, among other roles. Since mid-2019, I've given up on full-time work and turned to freelance writing, specifically B2B copywriting. You can learn more about my professional work and connect with me via LinkedIn.
