Writing was a hobby for me but now I see it as a craft. I used to criticize movies all the time, then I decided to make my own and my journey started.

الكتابة كانت هواية بالنسبة لي، لكنني الآن أراها كحرفة. كنت أنتقد الأفلام طوال الوقت، ثم قررت أن أصنع أفلامي الخاصة ومن هنا بدأت رحلتي.

I am a Palestinian-American independent filmmaker and composer. I have made several short films of several genres over the past few years, and written several unproduced pilots and feature films. I am also a composer and musician of ten years. I have lived in multiple countries throughout my life and credit my experience as an immigrant for who I am today. I will combine my love for entertainment and my diverse background to aid me in my craft as I explore all genres of film and music.

أنا صانع أفلام وملحن فلسطيني أمريكي مستقل، لقد أنتجت عدة أفلام قصيرة من تصنيفات درامية مختلفة خلال السنوات القليلة الماضية، وكتبت العديد من الحلقات التجريبية والأفلام الروائية التي لم تنتج بعد، كما أنني ملحن وموسيقي منذ عشر سنوات. لقد تنقلت وعشت في بلدان متنوعة خلال حياتي وأعزو الفضل لتجربتي كمهاجر إلى ما أنا عليه اليوم، سأجمع بين حبي للأعمال الترفيهية وخلفيتي المتنوعة لمساعدتي في مهنتي بينما أستكشف جميع أنواع الأفلام والموسيقى.

To say I love movies is a gross understatement. I think in movies, I speak in movie quotes, and I know an embarrassing amount of movie trivia!

أن أقول بأنني أحب الأفلام هو أقل ما يمكن أن يقال هنا. أفكر في الأفلام، وأتحدث باستخدام اقتباسات الأفلام، وأعرف بعضاً من المعلومات العامة والشائعة حول الأفلام!

Hello, love to write but don't do it often. That's my permanent character flaw.

مرحباً، أحب الكتابة ولكن لا أمارسها كثيراً. هذا هو عيب شخصيتي الدائم.

I'm a veteran stand-up comedian & a junior screenwriter. Most of my screenplays are comedies & dramedies. One of my screenplays (a TV sitcom pilot) was a finalist in a writing contest and a semi-finalist in another. Last year I won Open Screenplay's Time Hoppers animated TV show pilot contest and it led to a writing opportunity for the series.

أنا ممثل كوميدي مخضرم وكاتب سيناريو مبتدئ. معظم سيناريوهاتي عبارة عن أعمال كوميدية ودرامية. لقد وصلت إحدى سيناريوهاتي (حلقة تجريبية من مسلسل كوميدي) إلى المرحلة النهائية في مسابقة للكتابة، كما وصلت إلى المرحلة نصف النهائية في مسابقة أخرى. في العام الماضي، فاز السيناريو الخاص بي في مسابقة Time Hoppers لكتابة حلقة تجريبية لبرنامج تلفزيوني للرسوم المتحركة كانت قد نظمتها Open Screenplay، مما أتاح لي فرصة كتابة المسلسل.
