As a political science graduate, I have obtained skills in research, writing, presentation skills, and have been able to interact with people of different political, cultural, religious, and social statuses. This has helped me become able to deal with diversity. I enjoy learning about new cultures and becoming more aware of issues going on around the world. Being a law student, I have learned to think on my feet, I have also gained confidence in making legal and logical arguments and learned to use legal thought and procedures to make a point, explain an argument, or support my current stances.
I was brought up to be strong, persistent, and compassionate. I also grew up with a very wild imagination, and my parents encouraged me to express that through writing, so I used to write short stories and poetry and submit them to a magazine and managed to get published in a few issues. Getting that recognition at such a young age motivated me. So as a university student I took courses on research writing, analytical writing, creative writing, and persuasive writing. I attended workshops that taught me how to edit, write, and set a tone for my pieces.
During my university years, I freelanced for the Assessment Capacities Project (ACAPS) and Syria Resilience Consortium, in which I took on translation and transcription projects for annual reports on the Yemen Crisis, and Syrian Refugees Documentary.
Writing is not just a hobby it is my passion!
