Born and raised in Beirut, I’m a writer and documentary filmmaker, and these days, I’m based in Brooklyn.

I directed and edited the Capital Emmy-nominated documentary Common Grounds? (2021), have written essays for Inkwell and Christianity Today, and have freelanced for media outlets like BBC News. My nonprofit videography work has taken me to far-flung places like Potosi, Bolivia, and Almaty, Kazakhstan.

When I’m not filming or writing, I’m probably impulse-buying books on Prime, workshopping fiction concepts, or following the trials and tribulations of Manchester United.
