As an accomplished education professional with a strong background in learning leadership, and a demonstrated history of working effectively with diverse educational institutions across five continents, I bring expertise in developing and implementing American, British, and International K-12 educational models for non-profit and privately owned schools.

Possessing a special interest in integrating national curricula with internationally recognized program standards for accreditation, I've had the privilege of serving as Founding Principal for Al Mawakeb School Al Khawaneej (AMSI UAE), successfully opening a new purpose-built campus in Dubai.

I coach and nurture internationally minded school leaders and educators, providing support and guidance to private school owners committed to the UAE National Agenda, driving educational excellence and innovation. It’s my pleasure to be associated with NPE in driving educational excellence to its summit.
