CREATIVE DIRECTOR

As the Group Creative Lead at Al Khoory Group, a leading multi-industry (Real Estate, Automobiles, Equipment Trading & Servicing, Hospitality and Engineering Consultancy) company in Dubai, I oversee and execute all aspects of creative design and branding for the group’s portfolio of properties and services. With over 15 years of experience in the industry, I have developed a wide range of design skills, including graphic design, branding, logo design, brand identity development, sketching, photo manipulation, 3D modeling, and corporate video production.

EXCEPTIONAL


What sets me apart from other creatives is my remarkable talent and passion for design and arts, honed through countless hours of practice and self-learning. Despite lacking a formal fine arts degree, I have acquired my skills through dedication, determination, and an innate eye for design. I also have a keen understanding of the intricacies of design principles and the diverse cultural influences of Dubai, which inspire me to create stunning and unique visuals that capture the essence of the group's vision and values.

GOAL


My ultimate goal is to become a Chief Creative Officer, where I can leverage my expertise to shape and guide creative projects and make a lasting impression in the industry. I am always eager to explore new avenues and express my passion for design, as well as to learn from other talented and experienced professionals. I believe in never limiting myself and embracing new challenges, as well as in collaborating and contributing to the success of the team and the organization.
