Singer. Actor. Dancer.

Hey there! I’m a Lebanese-American artist, singer, and collaborator who believes deeply in the power of music to bring people together. Music has always been home for me. I grew up listening to Fairuz and doing children’s theatre, constantly humming through the house, driving my mother crazy, and filling every corner of our home with sound. Looking back, it was the first hint that music would become the backbone of my life. That love for storytelling and sound eventually carried me to Northwestern University, where I studied theatre and spent most of my days singing, arranging, and creating with people I love.

Alongside my work as an artist, I studied Data Science at Northwestern, where I got to blend creativity with analytics by building models and exploring how data shapes the world around us. For me, data isn’t separate from art; it’s another way of understanding people, behavior, and the stories we tell. Above all, my artistry is rooted in collaboration, authenticity, and joy. The work I make continually introduces me to people who change my life, challenge me to grow, and inspire me in ways I never expected, and I hope to keep creating art that resonates, uplifts, and reminds us how deeply connected we really are.
