Experience

C-C-C-Changes

30 years of working in the GCC

Three Decades. Four Continents.

One Unshakeable Passion for Storytelling.
Some people fall into their career. I walked into mine with a camera and never looked back.

For over thirty years, I’ve been telling compelling stories through the lenses, screens and at the live shows. Based in Doha, Qatar, a city that somehow always ends up being the center of the world, I work as an entrepreneur, livestream producer, corporate video director and media strategist, partnering with clients across the Middle East, Europe, and North America.

The titles have varied over the years:

Director. CEO. Executive Producer. Consultant.
But the mission has always been the same: find the truth in a story and put it on screen in a way that moves people. That drive has taken me across four continents, through countless productions, and into the kind of deep, hard-earned expertise that no classroom can teach and no shortcut can replicate.

 

The media landscape I started in barely resembles the one I navigate today.

Analog gave way to digital. Film surrendered to HD and then to 4K. COVID dismantled everything we thought we knew about live production. And now, AI and social media are rewriting the rules all over again. I’ve met every shift with curiosity rather than caution, and that restless adaptability is one of the most valuable things I bring to any project.

From live-streamed global conferences to full-scale media channel builds, from virtual events that somehow transcended the cold geometry of a screen to feel genuinely, warmly human – the breadth of what I’ve produced is matched only by the consistency of the standard I hold myself to.

GCC Cultural and Strategic intelligence

In media consulting
But perhaps the most powerful thing I offer today sits at an intersection very few people occupy.

Having spent years embedded in Doha’s business community and the wider Gulf ecosystem, I bring cultural and strategic intelligence, as well as the production expertise to the table. I understand how organisations in the GCC think, communicate, and make decisions. I know what resonates here and what falls flat. That depth of knowledge means I consult on the media strategies before producing the content and shape how brands, institutions, and leaders show up within it. It’s a rare combination, and for the right clients, a genuine game-changer.

Let's connect.
