I am a Berlin-based cultural manager and creative professional. Combining a background in literature with a passion for art and culture, I specialize in supporting international creatives who want to establish themselves in Berlin’s vibrant art scene.
As a transnational person who grew up between three cultures, my passion for different cultures and languages was instilled at an early age. As a child, I was interested in various forms of artistic expression, and literature became an essential source of inspiration for me. Later, during my studies in Germany and Lebanon, I specialized in Levantine literature. Questions of identity and the relationship between contemporary art, language, politics, social change, immigration and exile have been at the center of most of my work and research.
Through my intercultural background and my main fields of study, I have developed a deep understanding of the connections between art, literature and social issues, and I am committed to promoting international artists and supporting them in the realization of their projects. My multilingualism enables me to build bridges between different cultures and language areas.
I have an extensive network of contacts in the cultural sector and work closely with artists, writers and other creative professionals to help them bring their work to a wider audience. My intensive collaboration with artists such as Kamal Boullata, Mohammed Badarne, Faleh Khaless and Djan Sauerborn has resulted in a number of projects that I have managed in recent years.
