How did you start your professional career on TV?
I started my career on TV when I was approached by the First English TV Channel that was setting up in Dubai in 2003. I was invited to do a casting and eventhough I did not have any formal training in media, I was offered a role that became quite exciting as I had an opportunity to be involved with seven different shows over time and one of them was a daily live program with two other ladies.
Are you planning any other TV projects?
Yes, I do have a few projects in the pipeline. I freelance with several TV stations in the region and there is always something happening. However, I am selective about the events that I cover.
Some of my favourite events include the Dubai World Cup, Formula One, Dubai Film Festival, The Arab Fashion Week amongst others.
Would you like to try yourself as an actress?
In fact I have been approached several times to act in movies, reality TV shows and other ideas, however none of those ultimately materialized and in some cases I am pleased that I did not participate as the outcomes were not particularly world class in my opinion.
