About Me

I spent 11 years working on the social media team of a global airline (ahem Qatar Airways). My tenure molded me into a social media professional experienced in content production, advertising, community management, measurement analysis, brand monitoring, creators/influencers partnerships, and partnership marketing.

Can't forget working with numerous partnerships that include

  • Football (i.e. soccer for some of the countries): FIFA (yes, including the FIFA World Cup tournaments), Paris Saint-Germain, AS Roma, FC Barcelona, Inter Milan, FC Bayern München, UEFA Euro 2020, Boca Juniors, AFC, Al Ahli Saudi FC, AlSadd Sports Club, CONMEBOL, CONCACAF,
  • Motorsports: F1, MotoGP, Formula E
  • Other sports: Brooklyn Nets (basketball), Qatar ExxonMobil Open (ATP Tour), Qatar TotalEnergies Open (WTA), Ironman (triathlon), Royal Challengers Bengaluru (cricket - IPL).

After having worked on the social media team of a global airline in the Middle East region, I took a career break continue my tech blogging efforts and helped to grow The Geeky Nomads podcast with my close friend. It also gave me time to continue my tech blog Geeked Out Nomad covering the MENA region.

Now, I'm juggling my grad school adventures at The University of Texas at Dallas.
