I grew up in Libya and Egypt before moving to Florida to pursue my Ph.D. in Accounting at Florida Atlantic University. Having spent much of my life near the coast, and now living in Boca Raton, I can define myself as an outdoor person. I genuinely enjoy nature, the outdoors, and an active lifestyle.
Beyond research and teaching, some of my happiest moments are swimming with my kids, cooking, travelling, and discovering new foods together. I also enjoy listening to podcasts that explore life stories and emotions, as they remind me of the beauty side and resilience in human experiences. I love exploring new hobbies and adventures, horseback riding is the next one on my list.
