Claim your profileI’m a journalist, producer, and storyteller with more than 20 years of experience creating impactful, human-centered content for television, digital, and branded platforms. My background spans international news, live broadcast, unscripted series, documentaries, and comedy—from reporting in the Middle East to producing award-winning segments for NBC and PBS NewsHour. At my core, I’m driven by curiosity, creativity, and connection. I thrive on distilling complex ideas into compelling visual stories—stories that resonate emotionally, inform meaningfully, or entertain with bite. I’ve filmed across five continents, from bustling cities to remote deserts, navigating multilingual shoots, sensitive subjects, and unpredictable environments with ease and empathy. My creative production skills include field directing, story producing, casting, talent coaching, and building editorial frameworks that serve both structure and spontaneity. I shoot with a cinematic eye and edit with precision, collaborating closely with editors, motion graphic designers, and composers to elevate content from rough cut to final delivery. I’ve led productions from pitch through post, balancing creative vision with tight timelines and shifting budgets. Fluent in Arabic and English, I’ve built trusted relationships with contributors in dozens of countries. My ability to connect across cultures and get people to open up has made me a go-to interviewer and field producer for sensitive, character-driven work. I also specialize in coaching on-camera talent—helping new hosts, journalists, and creatives find their voice and presence. At NBC and MSNBC, I worked with anchors and correspondents to craft segments that felt sharp, authentic, and audience-ready. Beyond journalism, I create comedy and documentary content through my own ventures. I’m currently developing an independent New York-based late-night show and a sketch series under Lateral Move Comedy—projects that bring together my love of writing, directing, and spotlighting unique voices. Whether I’m working solo or leading a crew, I bring a calm, resourceful, and collaborative approach. I believe in lifting others while delivering great work—and I’m always looking for bold, purpose-driven stories to tell. Let’s connect if you’re looking for a creative partner who understands both the art and logistics of storytelling.
