I was born in Damascus - Syria from a Palestinian father and Syrian mother. I’ve been considered as a Palestinian refugee in Syria, UAE & USA. I Work as business development director for a lighting consultancy firm, my work gave me the opportunity to live in different countries till 2013 when I decided to join my family in France, my decision to quit UAE at that time was a direct result of not being able to renew my refugee travel document and all the consequences resulted of that. I arrived to France in September 2013, and have been recognized as a stateless person end of 2015 till the date. 

I am a French and New York licensed attorney. I studied one year in South Korea, earned a JD from Sorbonne Law school and completed an LL.M from UCLA. I helped a charity foundation to promote children’s rights in Bangladesh. I lived in Boston for 2 years and assisted an association in the field of sexual violence in civil society and in the incarcerated population. As a probono attorney, I helped underrepresented residents with cognitive impairments to access US citizenship. Finally, I am an active legal fellow of UnitedStateless, an organization promoting human rights for stateless individuals in the US. I intend to join the immigration committee of Lille bar and help people by providing free legal advice but also by supporting them on their journey to access citizenship. I have a strong interest in ethics and justice and wishes to further structural changes to prevent civil rights violations.
