When I first began an internship at 'Lammtara Art Productions' in 2016; I was introduced to the process of creating concepts & storyboarding for animations in Dubai. Ever since, I wanted to work creative-based projects with a team and be able to make an outcome we are proud of. Now that I'm pursuing a degree that relates to the gaming industry, I have been able to partake in a lot of team projects where my peers and I bounce ideas off each other and create games done with our utmost effort.

In the year 2022, a team-mate and I have won a euro-centric game jam competition that led us to be flown out and present our game to international researchers.

The summer of 2023, I was lucky to work on a 360 panorama projector in a company called 'VR Fun Zone' where I was able to solve an issue the company was having with connecting virtual cameras in a game engine onto projectors for an immersive experience.

In 2023, my university has invited me to represent them in EGX london as a student representative where I was able to present my game on the barclays rezzed sessions stage.

My most proud and technically challenging game I have developed is 'Metalhead'
