He graduated from the Ithaca College B.F.A. Musical Theatre program and has worked regionally at venues such as The Goodman Theatre, Barrington Stage Co., Theaterworks Hartford, & Berkshire Theatre Group. He’s also a proud Arab artist, working actively to increase Arab American/Muslim representation in media in order to educate and dismantle years of anti-arab rhetoric. As the most underrepresented community in the American Theatre it is our collective job to tell the nuanced beautiful stories of Arab culture to fight years of dehumanization and silencing.
