Bio

My interest in politics began in 1986, when I started to understand the development of civil war in Lebanon where I resided prior to moving to UAE. Currently, I am working with bhuth in managing employees documents as well as all the Center’s transactions with ministries and concerned institutions. Also, I play a key role in the Monitoring Team, in the process of following and extracting regional and international public and political news for research and analysis. Part of my work in the monitoring process includes looking at potential trends and news published through social network sites.
