About Me

I'm a consistent person who is always on time and always hard-working. A coder in Python and an aspiring Software Engineer.

Interactive and social, always ready to face a challenge and work with other people with pleasure — I demonstrated this as a member of the Debate Mate team for 5 years, mentoring for 2 of those years, and even competing at the Nationals where we achieved 4th place.

I would describe myself as a person who doesn't mind if a problem comes up but enjoys a challenge. I'm working on becoming a Software Engineer and becoming the best version of myself.

Beyond coding, I'm a pianist, a driver, a footballer, and I'm fluent in Arabic and semi-fluent in French. I'm also the Student Voice at The Manchester College.
