I joined FGM in 2006 and graduated in 2009 with a Bachelor’s degree in Business administration and Management. Then, I pursued my Master’s degree in Business and Distribution and graduated in 2011.

I started my career in 2012 with Middle East Airlines (MEA), our national carrier, which was a great milestone in my professional growth: MEA was the start of my journey of becoming a professional in the Aviation industry. Three years later, I had the opportunity to move to Dubai and join Boeing Company, where I am currently working as an Account Manager, handling major aviation accounts in the Middle East, Gulf, South Africa and India region. My experience in Boeing gave me the opportunity to be exposed to bigger markets, understand market changes and customer needs and taste the real experience of being part of the aviation industry.

Moreover, alongside my sales career, I co-founded my startup Kalsé (found on Instagram as kalse.lb), which is a brand of funky and untraditional statement socks. With Kalsé, I was able to unleash my potential, discover my inner entrepreneur and build a brand from scratch. Currently, I am managing its operations in Lebanon, UAE and Kuwait. I am also managing the work of our small team of four individuals and looking for new opportunities to grow the brand.

Today, I have come a long way from being a student in FGM and learning the business principles and theories to becoming an entrepreneur and a sales expert and applying my business knowledge to the benefit of my growth, my startup and my employer. I believe USJ not only helped me shape my career but also taught me to be resilient, methodical and disciplined. Not to forget that living the FGM experience alongside my friends, throughout all those years, built among us a strong connection that we proudly call a lifetime friendship.
