About
I'm an award-winning Art Director/Graphic Designer. What I do is simple: I help you find a way to turn your ideas into reality. Whether you're a business owner looking for a creative team or an agency on the hunt for a new team member, my goal is always to make sure that we're working together in the best way possible. I've been doing this for more than 18 years now, and I've seen it all—from local businesses who want an extra hand with their branding (and don't mind being a little hands-on) to global brands that need an entire team of creatives working around the clock to develop their next big campaign. And no matter how big or small your project is, my promise is that we'll work together as equals—because when it comes down to it, that's what this is all about: working together towards something bigger than ourselves. Full range of services, including: • Logo Design and Brand Identity (single language and bilingual) • Full-fledged Campaigns (Ads, OOH, Digital Banners) • Social Media (Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter) • Newsletter and Email Marketing • Typography • Arabic Calligraphy • Packaging, and • Annual Report
