The Real Story

Most CMOs haven't marketed
through a war. I have.

The hardest briefs come from the hardest places. Here's where I've actually worked — and what I built anyway.

01
Pharmix · 2021–Present · Palestine · Jordan · Israel
The Challenge
Marketing skincare and parenting brands in an active war zone

From October 2023, Palestine entered active conflict. Supply chains cut. Consumer spending in free fall. Audiences displaced, bereaved, or under siege. Three brands. Three markets. No CMO playbook for this.

I didn't pause or pivot to safe messaging. I adapted positioning, rebuilt audience segments from scratch, and found the emotional frequency that still reached people — even in crisis. That's not a skill you learn in a classroom.

02
DialogueX · 2025–Present · Remote · AI Peacebuilding
The Challenge
Marketing empathy when the whole world chose sides

We built a platform that requires both Israelis and Palestinians to sit at the same digital table — for dialogue — during the most polarised, traumatised moment in both societies' modern history.

Every word had to work for both audiences simultaneously. Every creative decision carried real-world stakes. Marketing "dialogue" in a world full of hatred isn't a brief — it's a responsibility.

Closer · 2023–2024 · Boston, USA (Remote) · MedTech
The Challenge
Marketing hope to parents in NICU waiting rooms

A medical device for preterm infants and breastfeeding mothers. Audience: parents in the most emotionally raw moments of their lives. Operating from Palestine, building for the US market, in a category where every word either helps or hurts.

You can't hustle your way through this. You have to understand the grief before you write a single line. That's the fractional CMO role before it had a name.

PalGeeks · 2019–2021 · Palestine · Digital Agency
The Challenge
Building a digital market that didn't think it needed one

Palestine in 2019 wasn't a digital-first market. Traditional businesses saw no need for it. Half the job was selling the vision of digital transformation before selling any actual services — in a market with limited infrastructure, limited trust, and no precedent.

We built it from the ground up: full-service for 50+ clients, a QR menu product, e-commerce platforms, and a team that could do it all.

Services

Four capabilities.
One strategic system.

Not isolated tactics — a unified approach that builds brand and drives performance at the same time.

01 ——
Emotional Marketing & Brand Strategy
Empathy-driven positioning that makes audiences feel understood. Architecture for new market entries, underdeveloped categories, and complex dual-audience briefs.
02 ——
Performance & Growth Marketing
Full-funnel paid media across Meta and Google. I own the P&L, architect audiences, direct creatives, and extract insights that change decisions — not just reports.
03 ——
Creative Direction & Content
From brief to final asset. Hands-on with Adobe CC, Figma, and video. Arabic and English copywriting with cultural nuance that most agencies simply can't replicate.
04 ——
Team Building & Modernisation
Structure, hire, and lead teams up to 20 people. Upgrade traditional orgs to digital-first. I build capability that outlasts my engagement — not campaigns that expire.

"I started in civil engineering. I think in systems and feel in stories — and that combination is exactly what hard briefs require."

My path didn't go straight to marketing. I came from civil engineering — which means I design marketing infrastructures that scale, not campaigns that burn out.

My work spans consumer health, parenting, nutrition, AI peacebuilding, and medical devices: industries where audiences need to feel something before they act. I don't choose between brand and growth. I build both.

I have deep Arabic consumer psychology combined with full English-language strategic fluency. For companies entering MENA or building for Arabic-speaking audiences, that's a genuine competitive edge that's very hard to find elsewhere.

I've co-founded 3 ventures and raised $120K+ in seed funding. I understand what it means to build from zero — under pressure, in markets without a playbook.
