About Me
In the learning and development, I do it for a living and I do it for passion. I am a curious being, I enjoy learning and exploring and I am a passionate being I love sharing and expanding.
Professionally: I have 15 years of experience mostly in the training and consultancy field and currently I work in the L&D team at a bank and I hold an MBA from Leipzig University.
And because life happens outdoors: I am a standup paddling athlete and a coach and an adventurer. I paddled from Minya to Cairo, 250 km in 5 days in 2020, participated in 1st ICF World Championship in Stand Up Paddling in 2019, walked from Aswan to Cairo, 900 km in 24 Days in 2018 and wrote a book about my experience walking through Egypt, and I go hiking and practice yoga.
At this moment, as I am writing this, the energy that I have in my heart wants to jump out and to start giving back especially through empowering youth in local communities to Be Active.
