Since high school, I have been passionate about sharing knowledge with students, particularly skills that will impact their futures, such as communication and networking. When I arrived at AUS, I proposed this idea to the leadership management to hold sessions that equip students with these essential skills. Thankfully, they approved, and since then, I have dedicated my summers to researching and creating the best presentations to maximize learning in these sessions. I extend my thanks to AUS and Ms.Alaa Al Naboulsi, the Development Officer at SLP, for making this dream come true.

After winning a major competition using a UAE-based IoT board, I had an unexpected opportunity to meet one of the judges, Khalid AlAwadhi—the founder of the board (I promise he was fair in scoring). This encounter sparked a connection that led to my role as a Part-Time IoT Engineer at Remal several months later. In this role, I develop and program smart device prototypes using Remal boards, specializing in environmental sensing, automation, and real-time data collection through MQTT protocols and cloud integration. Additionally, I lead workshops for university students, teaching IoT and embedded systems fundamentals, and mentoring them to create locally-made tech products, all while contributing to Remal’s mission of advancing the UAE’s IoT ecosystem through innovation and education.

The idea for Open Book Team was born in a biology lab, where a fellow student refused to share an answer with me regarding a lab paper I was doing. Frustrated, I came home determined to create a community where resources are freely shared. Along with 12 other students, we worked hard to compile the best notes in a variety of subjects. Today, we've reached more than 1,500 students. And we made sure you can now find every single biology lab answer :) When we are no longer students ourselves, we will pass on the torch to other passionate individuals who love helping others, ensuring the legacy continues!

Coding while petting cats and dogs! My experience went beyond just coding; being part of a startup allowed me to work in various fields alongside the CEO. I oversaw accounts management, product management, event assistance and supervision. Additionally, I managed interns, and coordinated their work to ensure alignment with project objectives. I also provided support in analyzing performance metrics and implementing necessary adjustments to enhance efficiency.

What an incredible journey it has been over the past year! My passion for journalism and covering important, often overlooked topics, has driven this podcast from the start. If I were a journalism student, this would have been my favorite project. Although we're stepping back for now due to our busy schedules, this podcast has always been a labor of love, not a job. We might return when things settle down, but until then, thank you for being part of this adventure with us!

In collaboration with the Entrepreneurship Club at my university, we are driven by a passion for innovation, especially among peers and students at universities. This led us to create the Falcon Pitch, a platform where ideas from all around the UAE are shared. This time, students won't work on their ideas alone; they'll collaborate with university students and expert mentors. Our goal is to help students recognize the importance and benefits of entrepreneurship!
