About

Engineer by training, builder by instinct

Senior data and analytics engineer with 5+ years of experience designing and managing end-to-end data solutions for complex, multi-stakeholder organizations. At the United Nations, I build and maintain data pipelines, governance frameworks, interactive dashboards, and reporting systems used by government ministries and senior leadership across the MENA region — combining deep technical expertise with the ability to translate data into clear, actionable decisions.

Education B.Sc. Physics, Lebanese University — Faculty of Sciences (2013 — 2016). Foundation in quantitative reasoning, statistics, and analytical problem-solving.

  • Data you can trust

    Five years of pipelines: ingestion, cleansing, validation, and quality controls. Azure Data Factory, Synapse, Airflow, and CI/CD — organized so leaders and analysts can rely on every number.

  • Dashboards that decide

    From Power BI and Tableau to R Shiny — I turn sprawling economic and social data into clear, real-time dashboards that senior leadership and government sponsors act on.

  • Governance & impact at scale

    My work spans multiple ministries across the MENA region — governance frameworks, an automated social expenditure monitoring system, and data literacy programs that build capability at senior levels.
