01 / About
Computer engineer by training. Producer by obsession. I've spent over a decade funding, developing, and producing Saudi films — first as a personal mission before cinemas were even legal here, now as a force in the industry.
From TIFF world premieres to genre-defining shorts, I build stories that didn't exist yet. Currently developing MEDIUM — an indie production company for horror, sci-fi, and fantasy with an A24 DNA.
Trilingual in Arabic, English, and Japanese. Trained in Unreal Engine, Blender, After Effects, and AI filmmaking tools.
