About

A dedicated senior political science and international affairs student at the Lebanese American University, currently part of the university’s Honors Program with a CGPA of 3.97. My relentless pursuit for knowledge led me back to higher education studies after enriching work experiences, which helped establish education and public administration as general frameworks of interest, with education policy, promoting equity, and improving the quality of curriculum content at the core of this.
