Bio:

I am a serial entrepreneur and the Country Manager of the World Robot Olympiad (WRO) in Kuwait, with extensive experience in building, testing, breaking, and rebuilding projects and structures across education, technology, and innovation ecosystems. My work focuses on empowering communities through robotics, creative technology, and hands-on learning. I joined the FabLab program to learn from the best, connect with passionate fabricators, and develop a more structured and scalable approach to transferring practical fabrication, design, and innovation skills to future generations.

A project I'm proud of:

I was part of many projects, 2D animation, web, app dev, 3D prints, 3D origamy models, etc.. But I always was part of a team or leading the young ones, This would be my first 100% project by me.

The project I am most proud of yet is creating my duaghter Misk ^_^ fabricated inside of me :p
I, and all other women, are the most advanced Fablab yet lol
