I graduated from the National Film and Television School with a MA in Documentary Direction in 2005, where I directed and produced five films over the past two years. Before NFTS I lived in New York City, where I was a field worker and interviewer in the child welfare and criminal justice systems During that time, I studied in Third World Newsreel's workshop, through which I produced and directed two short and was also a member of the activist collective, Paper Tiger Televison, with whom I collaborated on two documentaries about American involvement in Middle East Politics. Before that, I worked in independent feature film development and production for two years, and was the assistant to documentary director Errol Morris, my first job after graduating from college. I came to Errol after having studied philosophy at Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania and Deep Springs College in California. I was born and raised in Boston, USA by Syrian-Lebanese and Swiss parents. I now live and work in London.
